    April 11, 2024 - By themusingsofkia

    Imagine your kid trading in sneakers for combat boots! This is MY experience, and let me tell you, the thought of my son leaving has me crying a Denzel tear when he’s not in my presence, but with a smile. I think I’ve done a good job in the motherhood…

    Let’s Normalize Healthy Platonic Friendships Between Men & Women

    April 11, 2024 - By themusingsofkia

    As a fan of Abbott Elementary, I must share that I am here for Janine and Gregory not ending up in a romantic relationship. I haven’t seen a cute friendship like theirs since Jack and Janet on Three’s Company! In the season 2 of Abbott Elementary, Janine and Gregory shared…

    Trying to Solve Life’s Puzzle Without a Guide

    April 10, 2024 - By themusingsofkia

    Navigating the labyrinth of emotions can often feel like attempting to solve a puzzle without a guidebook. I feel like this song should be the theme song to this think piece, so press play and get submerged in the words. There are moments when we find ourselves unable to decipher…

    They’re my favorite characters on ‘Do the Right Thing‘ that happens to also be one of my favorite real-life couples to ever grace our screens. I never knew them personally, so I can only speak about them as a fan and an admirer of their love and work, individually and…

    Slamming Phones >Leaving Them “On Read”!

    April 6, 2024 - By themusingsofkia

    Those were the days… Slamming the phone after an argument definitely hits harder than leaving them “on read”. It reminds me of simpler times when we dealt with simpler things in a simpler way! I’m not complaining that our phones are like minicomputers that can do almost everything. In fact,…

    So, I’m Doing This Again…

    April 5, 2024 - By themusingsofkia

    I’ve revisited the idea of blogging, because well…I really need another method, outside of Youtube, to express thoughts and ideas.
