Louise Glück, from “Marathon.”

[Text ID: Then you kissed me—I felt hot wax on my forehead. I wanted it to leave a mark: that's how I knew I loved you. Because I wanted to be burned, stamped, to have something in the end.]

“My thoughts are tired. I am not seeing things freshly, but rather in a pedestrian, lifeless way. It is as if a flame had gone out and I must wait until it starts to burn again by itself.”

— Ludwig Wittgenstein, Nachlass, MS 102 (13 January 1915)

“Love is a joy, perhaps a joy mixed with pain, but a joy nevertheless. If the joy is missing, or if it shrinks into a flicker, then love is missing.”

— Ludwig Wittgenstein, Nachlass, MS 133 (26 October 1946)

May comic! Happy mental health awareness month. 🐝 Comic brought to you by my constant worry that I don’t exist if I have nothing to show for myself.  

Advice to my past self: Read about burnout. Stretch. Stand up. Get lunch. Ask for extensions. Get help. Sleep. Take time off if you need to, don’t ask. Take care of yourself.
