Answer : Hope

Hope is a precious commodity

It cannot be bought or sold 

You can however keep yours while still offering it to others

Hope changes your perspective and allows your body and mind to heal

I used to dread failures

the ultimate embarrassment

something to be forgotten

then I learned to look back along the road I took to failure

identifying what had weighed me down

I challenged myself to give those things up

the next time I took that road

I could fly
