Savant syndrome is elaborate abilities (including memory) in specialized areas such as a hobby or event, or a certain type of information. One of the most well-known cases of savant memory is Kim Peek, the man on which the movie Rain Man was based.[20] Peek had a reported savant memory for most information, not just specialized pieces, and was able to memorize large pieces of information from the age of 16 months. Tony DeBlois and Derek Paravicini also show superior memory for music. Deblois can play 8000 songs from memory on 20 different instruments,[21] and Paravicini can play a piece of music after hearing it only once.[22][23] Another case of savant memory is that of Richard Wawro. Wawro is known for his paintings of landscapes and seascapes, all done in elaborate detail.[20] What is interesting about Wawro's art is that he paints from seeing a scene only once and does not use a model. His memory for the scene is so elaborate that he can also report where he drew the picture and when. Similarities across cases indicate that savant memory may be similar to eidetic memory.[20]

Daniel Tammet is a savant with an exceptional memory for numbers. He began to associate numbers with images after experiencing an epileptic seizure at the age of four.[24] Each digit for Tammet has color, shape, and emotion, allowing him to memorize sequences of numbers or perform large calculations within a matter of seconds.[25] One of his most notable achievements was being able to recite Pi to 22,514 decimal places, taking him over five hours.[26]

Savant memory varies among different savants. Similar to DeBlois and Paravicini, an autistic savant named Leslie Lemke has displayed extraordinary musical talent. Lemke lacks the capacity for abstract reasoning, but he has several abilities that coincide with his exceptional memory. Like Paravicini, he is able to replicate music perfectly after hearing a piece only once.[27] Along with being developmentally disabled, he has a disorder known as echolalia, a condition that involves the rote, often meaningless, repetition of words or sentences recited by others;[28] however, when he does recite these words of whoever he hears throughout the day, his recall is almost always perfect.[27]

1) Would you cut off your leg if the only way out from a difficult situation is to cut it and gain freedom? 


2) Would you give your eyes to your child if he was blind? 


3) Would you kill yourself for the one you love? 

Your identity, for example


4) How much bucket of tears would you cry if everything is taken from you? 


5) How much do you love your loved one? Supposed to say there was someone like them or beyond them, would you still love the same person? 


6) How much do you want love? 


7) Are you a martyr or a murderer?

While I searched for the most beautiful music, the most beautiful sounds in the world, the greatest literatures, the ideal movies that suits my intelligence and personality, I didn't realize that the prices are going up and in my consciousness I am still at the bottom of the ladder, a third world country. 


In exchange for the beautiful sounds and beautiful people and honesty, for what is perfect and ideal,  or words that captures my fantasy and thoughts, I am at the bottom. With no friends and my family suspecting me of mental illness.
