Why do SSDs have a more limited number of times data can be written to them, but RAM memory can handle loads of re-writes?

Ram gets knocked out to sleep Ssd remembers because it went to sleep by it self

I like this one, but as a slight change:

RAM holds the apples you gave it until it is knocked out and drops them all and has no idea what an apple is when it wakes up.

Flash holds the apples you gave it and sets them down in the exact order you gave it to them, sleeps, and picks them back up again when it wakes up ready to hand them back.
