It looks like you're looking to create an example of an allusion. Here’s one for you:

Example: “When she faced the unexpected setback at work, she felt like Sisyphus, pushing her boulder uphill only to watch it roll back down again.”

In this example, the reference to Sisyphus, a figure from Greek mythology condemned to eternally roll a boulder uphill, is an allusion that highlights the struggle and frustration of dealing with repeated challenges.
