Description

We all have a boulder. We all have a mountain.

Sisyphus was cursed to never reach his summit, but you are not Sisyphus.

No matter how long it takes, how many times the boulder breaks away, how many times you trip and fall. No matter how many times you have to start over, you are not cursed.

Pick up your boulder and try again.

At least once more.

Reach the summit.

    Written in an odd 2nd and 1st person POV, this is a bit of an interesting piece about Sisyphus-like case of pushing a boulder. The allegory here is given a bit of a twist, but the premise is simple and the point is basic enough. I think the POV issues with all the 'You, You, You' and the narrator's 'I, I, I' is a bit odd to me. The piece works, but the two different situations doesn't really do much as a story to me.
