休惜

休 = 亻 + 木 : Mnemonic symbol: a folding chair

休 = 亻 + 木 : Rosa Luxemburg took Marie Curie for a long trip to the outhouse, and now Marie Curie is tired. Luckily there's a nice and big Christmas tree in front of the outhouse, so Rosa Luxemburg sets up Marie's folding chair in its shadow to let her rest.

惜 = 忄 + 昔 : NASA ordered Marie Curie (xi) to do an experiment for them in front of the space station (Ø1). They are spending 2000000000 bucks to see what happens when you crush a milk shake (昔) with a flail (忄) in outer space. Marie Curie thinks it is a pity (惜) and would rather drink her cherished (惜) milk shake rather than crush it.
