There was one person who was one of the craftiest people in Classic Myths. His name is Sisyphus. One day, the Zeus had witnessed Sisyphus kidnap Aegina daughter of the River, Asopus, told what he saw to Asopus. Raged Zeus sent the Death to Sisyphus. However Sisyphus deceived the Death and caught the Death in a trap. Until the War, Ares saved the Death, there were no people who died in the world. As the Death released, Sisyphus knowing he had to go underworld, he told his wife not to have a funeral and burial.
Sisyphus asked the Death, Hades, to go the world and punish his disgraceful wife who does not have a funeral and burial. After repatriated to the world, Sisyphus had lived happily with wife until he died. After Sisyphus died, he was convicted to endlessly roll a huge boulder up a steep hill. It was 'Sisyphus myth' During several month, he hardly rolling a huge boulder up a steep hill, but when we reached end of the hill, a huge boulder rolling down at the foot of hill. It was endless.
Why punishment convicted to Sisyphus was such horrible? People said it was because of huge boulder and physical pain. When Sisyphus made one step to roll a huge boulder up a steep hill, muscles were seem to be cut off and hearts to be explored. What is different if the god had convicted to move pebbles that can hold in one hand? It might not be hard physically as much as the former, however, there would be no fundamental difference in two punishment. What the god intended was not physical suppression. It was emptiness of the labor. There was no meaning in what Sisyphus had done.
People who could not find meaning in works could not be absorbed in one's work. Only when we know meaning of work, we could devote us to work and complete our goal. Steemian, do you know meaning of what you did? Steemit was not fixed what Steemit might be. You could draw your own blue print. But the most important was to give your won meaning. You have to know your own meaning.
