Sisyphus' silent joy

All Sisyphus' silent joy is contained therein. His fate belongs to him. His rock is a thing. Likewise, the absurd man, when he contemplates his torment, silences all the idols. In the universe suddenly restored to its silence, the myriad wondering little voices of the earth rise up. Unconscious, secret calls, invitations from all the faces, they are the necessary reverse and price of victory.

-- Albert Camus, The Myth of Sysiphus

Well, I just said on your Flickr stream that I was too lazy to join another community, but I was wrong. I just started a free site here. And in just a few moments, I've discovered that this community is likely better than Flickr. I don't know why it never occurred to Flickr to let us post music, videos, and other files in addition to photos. I've been complaining about this forever.

Oh well... time will tell where I wind up, I suppose.

Best wishes to you, always.
