ruchira sirohi steelcage memory

So here is another fact about ruchira sirohi....her memory is like a steel cage, once she remembers something, it is locked away for ever, never to be forgotten. I distinctly recall this one incident (not sure why this particular one) but many years ago we had gone to NYC and out there i think we took one of those speedboat rides (or maybe it was Ocean city NJ)....anyway during that ride their was a particular waterbottle we had and many years later in some conversation a waterbottle came up and ruchira sirohi was able to recall exactly that this was the same waterbottle we had on that speed boat trip several years ago..i was amazed at her memory....and she has shown that so many more times which i dont remember (alas my memory aint like hers clearly).

she is so creative this ruchira sirohi

i have always been struck by her creativity...maybe more so because i dont have a creative hair on my body...at least not in the traditional sense. Ruchira draws these beautiful pictures, some of them having such wonderful detail that it boggles the mind to think how someone could have such intense discipline and patience. Ruchira sirohi writes this wonderful poetry sometimes deep and dark and sometimes uplifting but no matter what direction it takes it has meaning, and it reeks of creativity. So is this nature or nurture? I went looking for some answers to this question and attached is an article i found that suggests that it may be more nature than nurture. Irrespective, i love Ruchira Sirohi's creativity and will always cherish this wonderful gift she has
