Yes, you read that right, this is my last Odyssey article. With my busy schedule and goals that need to be met this school year, I am taking a step back.

So, for my last article, it only felt right that I said thank you to those who mean the most to me.

Thank you to those are most important and most influential in my life. Without you all, I couldn't have accomplished all that I have this far.

Here it is, a long overdue, thank you.

Thank you for listening to my rants and problems that I over dramatize sometimes, thinking that my entire life is falling apart.

Thank you for being my shoulder to cry on and a helping hand when needed.

Maddie Stallings

Thank you for supporting me in everything and anything that I got myself into, knowing I had to much on my plate already.

Maddie Stallings

Thank you for loving me unconditionally and never losing faith in me, even when I didn't think I could power through whatever was going on at the time.

Maddie Stallings

Thank you for picking me up when I am down, for only being a phone call away when I have a bad day, and being the first people that I want to share my good news with.

Maddie Stallings

Thank you for just being there through all of the good and bad times that I have been through, and the ones that are to come.

I am more thankful than all of you know put together. I am thankful that I know you all will always be there, and I can count on you no matter what. I am thankful that you all have put up with me and loved me, for me. I couldn't ask for a better support system, and if I had the option, I wouldn't trade any of you for the world.

You guys are my heart, home, and backbone. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I can never say it enough, thank you.
