GET TO KNOW ME TAG


Wasssuuuup guys! So the other day I discovered a really cool blogger. Her name is Taimi Taaya. You guys should check her out, she’s amazing. Anyway, she did a “Get to know me tag” which I thought was interesting and important as it allows me to engage with my readers. I present to you the GET TO KNOW ME TAG.


Q: What is my name and what does it mean?

A: My name is Leena Franscisco. I wasn’t really sure about the meaning of Leena so I had to look it up and I found that it means a ‘divine illumination’. How cool is that? My middle name is Pombili, which is in my native language-Oshiwambo, and it can be translated as ‘being at peace’. I used to hate the name Pombili though because I have a male cousin with the exact same name and I just felt like it was a name for boys, lol.

 

Q: Where am I from?

A: I was born and raised in Tsumeb, Namibia. Tsumeb is such a beautiful town. If you have never been there please make time to come check it out.

 

Q: What are my favourite things about myself?

A: Most people would say I am a shy person but I don’t think so. I am reserved and usually don’t speak without thinking first. This has worked to my advantage many at times. When it comes to my physical appearance, I love my smile. I believe that there is so much power in a smile and we don’t realize the magnitude of what a smile does to or for somebody. Because of that, I try to genuinely smile at strangers because that may be the only thing that will uplift them on that specific day. Try it, and let’s give the world hope one smile at a time.

 

Q:  What is an ideal first date to me?

A: Uhm, dinner on a yacht. Just kidding! I am not really big on dramatic first dates but I mean, some type of effort would be appreciated. For me it’s really all about authenticity. Whatever we do, wherever we go, BE YOU and I will try to be me. HAHA.

 

Q: Favourite book?

A: I have read quite a couple of books but there’s this one that changed my life. Understanding your Potential by the late Dr Myles Munroe. I cannot wait to see him so I thank him for this book, seriously. I love Joseph Prince’ books as well. He teaches on grace. His books are amazing!

 

Q: Who was my first best friend?

A: A nice white girl in grade 1 but I forgot her name, lol. So I’ll talk about my next best friend. It was during the holiday and we used to text each other every single day just talking about random things. I liked her. So I texted her: “We r bst frnds nw”. We’ve been besties since.

 

Q: What sports do I play or have I played?

A: I don’t really like this question. I played Netball when I was in primary up until all my classmates grew way taller than me.
 
Q: Do I have any bad habits?
A: No. Just kidding! I play too much. I would say that my most unattractive habit would be texting back. I am such a terrible person to chat with. I do not reply for absolutely no reason and I promise you, it is not even intentional. But I am working on it :)
 
Q: Favourite song?
A: I love music so this is a very hard question for me. I especially love worship music. I have so many favourites, honestly, but there's an album that is in season for me right now and that's Tasha Cobbs-Leonard's latest album. Oh my goodness guys, please check her out. Also, I am loving Tauren Wells right now too. You GOTTA check him out too
 
Q: What makes me happy?
A: Seeing people smile. I don't even have to be the reason. I get really emotional too when people get saved-when they give their lives to Christ. It is literally the most fulfilling thing to me because there is only so much you can do for someone but Jesus. Jesus does it all man.
Alright, that's it from me. If you have any more questions, comment down below and you can also share with me, by answering some of these questions too. Thanks for taking the time to read these posts. I truly appreciate it! God bless you.

  1. I think you have a very RICH inner life that probably doesn't find much expression in "real" life but I guess this blog will attempt to serve that cause.

I am just A LITTLE insecure

This concept is not 'news' to me. It is something I had trouble with and if I am to be honest, it is something that I deal with on a daily basis. I think its a state of mind, if you ask me. I will tell you this because since I changed my thoughts about myself and how I view myself, I have become a different person. I am not about to give you a list on how to overcome insecurities, no way. Mainly because I do not really know the step by step process on how one can overcome it and quite frankly, that is a whole scenario that seems way too boring for me to write about. I just want to tell you about YOUR WORTH. Have you heard...you are beautiful. Just a quick question, on a scale of 1-10 how much do you think you are worth? In a world we live in, it is so easy to lose sight of our worth and compare our behind-the-scenes with somebody else's filtered to perfection appearance. That is not okay. We live in a society that prives on outward appearance, the number of followers you

I remember that day very clearly. Surrounded by so many people and yet, felt so alone. I knew there was so much noise as my friends were engaging in conversations in an attempt to cheer me up but somehow, I could not hear a thing. I laughed here and there but at most instances, had no idea what the joke was about. I was deep in my thoughts. Now that I think about it, I cannot even believe how consumed I was in my own thoughts. I felt suffocated. Now imagine feeling alone and suffocated. AT THE SAME TIME! As I sat there, with mixed emotions (so much joy from the presence of my loving, 'funny' friends together with the pain of just having lost a loved one) and in my own thoughts. I remember feeling completely numb and as though I am sleeping when infact, I was wide awake. I was so appalled by what suddenly came out of my mouth. It was not loud enough for everyone to hear, but I heard it. I asked God, 'Okay, what now? What am I supposed to do with myself now? What were YOU th
