Here’s a flashback to how I started this year. Nailed it.

I hope you’re with folks who love you & put good energy into this good-energy-starved world. There’s much work ahead. Take a breath & love your loves. If you’re on the hurting side of these difficult times, I wish you the best; there are people who care what happens to you.

This Sondheim lyric was sent to me by Kristen Anderson-Lopez as part of our Lyric-of-the-Day series that we share via her Twitter account and our Instagram feed. She sent it to me around the anniversary of the Sandy Hook killings and I’ve shared it every time there is a school shooting.

“Every now and then the country goes a little wrong…”

Sondheim has a lyric for everything.
