Most high school students don’t think about, let alone have plans past today, but for 17-year-old Paint Branch senior Omar Akbari this is not the case as he has very meaningful plans for his future. Omar says that in the next ten years he “wants to be stable, have a good job, have a home, and be happy with a family.”

For Omar, stability is a cornerstone of his aspirations. He’s not content with merely going through the motions either as he’s actively planning for a future that promises both personal and financial stability. In a world often characterized by uncertainty, Omar’s unwavering commitment to stability serves as a testament to his maturity and foresight.

One of Omar’s foremost goals is to secure a good job that not only sustains him but also allows him to build a comfortable life. He understands the importance of hard work and dedication in achieving this goal, and he’s willing to put in the effort to make it a reality.

Beyond having a job that he looks forward to in the future, Omar dreams of having a place to call home. The idea of a stable, comfortable living environment is more than just a distant dream for him, it’s a tangible goal. He envisions a home where he can find solace and create lasting memories with his family.

Perhaps what sets Omar apart the most is his unwavering commitment to happiness. He understands that true success isn’t solely measured by wealth or status but by the joy and contentment you get from living life. Omar’s determination to find happiness in every aspect of his journey reflects a wisdom beyond his years.

As he goes through his senior year at PB  with aspirations of stability, a good job, a loving home, and genuine happiness after college, Omar seems certain to achieve the goals he has set for himself.
