The smell of garlic and onion cooking as I get home from work.
The touch of my cat's fur on my bare skin.
The sound of that lone owl that sends me to sleep when I visit my parent's house.
That first sip of a morning cuppa before I've faced the day.
I often experience them without a second thought.
But it is sight - our window to the world - that I treasure the most.
It's hard to imagine being told one day that will be taken away.
This is little Sabre's reality.
A young boy, so full of life, now facing a tougher world than previously thought.
But his story teaches us that sight is more than just seeing with our eyes - it is an outlook on life that isn't confined to vision.
Despite his future prospects, Sabre is determined to still see the world - really see it - in his own way.
And while he may not be able to drive in the countryside in the future, or see the faces of those he loves, he is happy and undaunted.
His youth might have something to do with this positivity, but I have no doubt little Sabre will adapt and thrive and remain strong.
And if he teaches us one thing, it's that we should cherish and hold onto the understated beauty of the everyday.
The sun peeking in through our bedroom window as we wake, the freckles on our partner's face, the smile of a friend we haven't seen for weeks - the daily artwork that is our world.
