The Fifth Day of Kwanzaa: Nia -- Everything Happens With a Purpose

Everything Meaningful Happens 

With A Purpose

The world is filled with volumes spoken and written about purpose. There are some who believe "everything is for a purpose." Others ask, "What on earth am I here for?" No substantive change happens without a purpose.

Our purpose may not be carved in stone, but we can focus our thoughts, our words, our actions, and our habits into making a difference every day within the African American community.

The Essence of Destiny
Watch your thoughts, for they become words.
Choose your words, for they become actions.
Understand your actions, for they become habits.
Study your habits, for they become your character.
Develop your character, for it becomes your destiny.

 

THE FIFTH DAY OF KWANZAA

NIA
Nia (NEE-ah) is the fifth day of Kwanzaa and it means "purpose". On this day, we pledge that our purpose is to build and develop our communities, our schools and our families. We also pledge to provide a strong community foundation from which our children can develop into empowered and productive people.

 

Happy Kwanzaa!
