Here one:

A napkin? If that's the case, I suggest different choice of words :)

I'll make my contribution then: What's fragile but powerful, invisible but visible, influential but commonly used, and something which everyone uses?

I doubt it. It probably has a much deeper meaning as things like hope, trust, friendship, confidence, words all befit the descriptions. What would be a good way to summarize all those things... Something close to 42 or something but my guess is: Emotions

Not fair by me, I scoured the internet using the combined resources of humankind up to this point. I won't post the answer though, but did find it.

Really? It's not supposed to be on the internet, as it's a riddle made by myself.

Oh and Alice and Himelik borh got it wrong. Getting closer though

Okay, if you made it up, I will post an answer then. Let's see if the others thought the same as you.

What's fragile but powerful, invisible but visible, influential but commonly used, and something which everyone uses?

Answer: TIME

Here is a new riddle, in case it turns out I am right:

A poor man is sitting in a pub. He sees that the man next to him is extremely rich.

Poor man: I have an amazing talent; I know almost every song that has ever existed.

The rich man laughs.

Poor man: I am willing to bet you all the money you have in your wallet that I can sing a popular song that includes a lady's name of your choosing.

The rich man laughs again.

Rich man: OK, how about my daughter's name, Joanna Armstrong-Miller?

The poor man goes home rich.

What song did he sing?
