Fill in the Blanks: Myth of Sisyphus

Please study the paragraph given below:

In 1942, the French writer Albert Camus composed an essay, 'The Myth of Sisyphus'. It draws on the Greek fable of a man condemned to roll a rock up a mountain only to have it roll back down under its own weight, a ______ that lasts for eternity. Camus argues that this image ______ the human condition in a world where we can no longer make sense of events; but instead of committing suicide, we should ______ ourselves to this 'elusive feeling of absurdity' and bear it as best we can. In this sense, Sisyphus is the ideal hero.
