 Nia (NEE-ah) is the 5th day of Kwanzaa and it means "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 words, our actions, and our habits into making a difference every day.
The Essence of Destiny
Watch your thoughts, for they become words.
Watch 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 to build and develop our communities, our schools and our families.
We also pledge to provide a strong communal foundation from which our children
can develop into strong and productive people.
