We live in rebellion to the absurd.
We know fundamentally that our lives have no ultimate meaning, we don't know why we exist, but we do anyway.
Look at Sisyphus, rolling that eternal rock up the mountain in Hades, and finding that he can actually be happy in spite of the meaninglessness of this activity simply because he endures in the face of this absurdity! He endures to spite the gods for punishing him, to spite the meaninglessness of existence. If Sisyphus can be happy living in the face of existence... we can too.
