I am less interested in an inspirational hero than a doer of everyday good who avoids the
description heroic; less interested in a (a) to “live your dream” than an obligation to make a
living wage. When you think of Sisyphus the Greek figure whose attempt to defy the gods
resulted in his (b) to push a boulder up a hill and repeat the task when it rolled down again-
consider that he had a task which was his own. Rather than being a cause for (c), the task may
be seen as a source of happiness. In Camus' novel, The Plague, the doctor at the center of the story
battles the spread of one fatal (d) after another in a Sisyphean pursuit of the impossible. At one
point he says, "The whole thing is not about heroism. It's about integrity." Asked what that word
means, he responds: "In my case, simply put, I know that it's about doing my job." In sum, it is in the
everyday task at hand that a deeper (e ) about life is gained.
