    The Absurd or Absurdity can be exemplified in such ways that we understand it as illogical, nonsensical, unreasonable, preposterous, or simply meaningless. As we now look into the primary reason of how the Absurd exist in our mind traces back into the human phenomenon/experience that brought knowledge of the absurd.

    According to Albert Camus a French philosopher, journalist, and the author of “Myth of Sisyphus” that:

    We will never find in life itself the meaning that we want to find. Either we will discover that meaning through a leap of faith, by placing our hopes in a God beyond this world, or we will conclude that life is meaningless. If life has no meaning, does that mean life is not worth living? If that were the case, we would have no option but to make a leap of faith or to commit suicide.
