2. Read the President's Facebook message.

Here's what President Obama shared on Facebook ahead of the address:

"For Michelle and me, Chicago is where it all started. It’s the city that showed us the power and fundamental goodness of the American people.

"It’s that inherent strength that brought our country through our fair share of challenges these last eight years. Because of you, we’ve come through them stronger. Because of you, we’ve held to a belief that has guided us ever since our founding -- our conviction that, together, we can change this country for the better.

"It’s easy to lose sight of that in the blizzard of our minute-to-minute Washington news cycles. But America is a story told not minute to minute, but generation to generation -- a story written by parents, and teachers, and veterans, and neighbors who’ve taken on the call of citizenship, working together, without fanfare, to form a more perfect union.

"Over the course of my life, I’ve been reminded time and again that change can happen -- that ordinary people can come together to achieve extraordinary things. And I’ve seen that truth up close over these last eight years.

"We’ve made America a better, stronger place for the generations that will follow. We’ve run our leg in a long relay of progress, knowing that our work will always be unfinished. And we’ve reaffirmed the belief that we can make a difference with our own hands, in our own time. That’s the imperative of citizenship -- the idea that, with hard work, and a generous heart toward our fellow Americans, people who love their country can change it.

"So tonight, I’m returning to where it all began to offer my most grateful farewell to the American people. I hope you’ll join me -- I want to thank you for everything you’ve done."

Rescuing the economy from the brink of depression. Passing a law that provided health care to millions. Watching as marriage equality became the law of the land. Driven by the belief that those who love this country can change it, we've made incredible progress together.

Across the country and around the world, people are reflecting on a moment from the past eight years that inspired them to share in this belief.
