Savoring the moment.

I don't wanna be defeated by life. No matter what happens, I wanna turn it into a victory. Sort of like the mythical Sisyphus. The guy required to push a huge boulder up a steep hill, only to see it topple back down again after nearly reaching the peak. So close. Yet so far. Sisyphus had to trek back down, fetch his boulder, and start all over again. But hey, I'm assuming Sisyphus was able to find enjoyment. Especially on the walk back down. Especially if it was a nice weather day. He had a break. Time for respite. Rejuvenation. He could forget about the rock for a while. And savor the moment. For that matter, even hard labor can be comforting. Keeps one in tip-top physical condition. --Jim Broede
