OGE,

 

I read through the list and even before I finished I had problems with the greatest loss. To me the greatest loss would be one's integrity. I see this is addressed in the most prized possesion. I would reverse these two. Only because once lost, it is nearly impossible to regains ones integrity, at least in the sense as it is perceived by others. I think it is possible to regain one's self respect as that is an internal assessment. Very minor but a subtle difference.
