Pokeiach Ivrim The Free Camera

There is no camera in the world as complex as the human eye. Millions of nerve endings in the retina connect to the brain, which interprets the message. The eyes are the camera, but really we are seeing with our brain.

When we wake up in the morning and open our eyes, we should feel a deep hakaras hatov for the ability to see. If we needed to, we would give away everything we possess to avoid losing the ability of sight, and now we have it for free.
