Hey, everybody.

This short segment is called a go-to.

It refers back to this crazy thing we used to do at the end of our sorority meetings in college.

If you can believe that, it was called for the good of the order.

And it was a way to share something that had emerged over the course of the week, which

really was a bit of learning or thinking or feeling that was to everyone's benefit to share.

And so that's all we'll do here. Every Friday, we release a go-to, and we encourage you to share it with friends around the country.

We know that people use it as a way to stay in touch with their best friends across the country,

and, of course, far-flung family members, wherever they might be.

And as for your local nearest and dearest,

consider it fodder for discussion over the

course of the weekend. This is Kelly Corrigan Wonders in our weekly segment called GoTo.

Today's GoTo is a message from me to you if you are feeling tired and discouraged and like you don't know how to quote open your

face up and sing as Annie DeFranco says in a song that I love. I hear from so many people every week

we get letters upon letters in our mailbox which is hello at Kelly Corrigan.com.

And we love them and they help keep us tied to you in important ways. And so this is a response

to some of that fatigue that I'm hearing. I encourage you to share it with your best friends

and use it as a rally cry.

It is totally understandable that the lot of us is wiped out.

And yet, there's more to be done.

So here are my thoughts for you and your friends.

I feel lucky to be here in more ways than one.
