*SuitHeart* A huge thank you to Sallie for decorating this guestbook with a beautiful Red Ribbon. Thank you so very much! *Smile*

Kiribati Flag Description:

The flag of Kiribati consists of a bottom half made up of six alternating blue and white wavy stripes that represent the water. Above the waves is a yellow/gold half sun with 17 rays in the middle of the flag. Above the sun there is a yellow/gold frigate bird flying towards the left side of the flag. The top half of the flag is designed on a red background.
The image of the bird on the flag represents authority, freedom and command of the sea. The sun rising over the red sky represents the equator and the blue and white wavy lines symbolize the Pacific Ocean. The 17 rays of the sun also represent the 16 islands and Banaba (former Ocean Island). The flag's image represents Kiribati's geographical location as the islands spread out over the equator for over 4000 kilometers and cover over two million square kilometers of the Pacific Ocean.

Brief Personal Description:

My name is Metu, and I am originally from the island of Nikunau but born and raised at Betio atoll (South Tarawa).
I love to shape out why people do what they do. If someone needs help, I like to get to the core of the predicament and help them discover a way to fix it. I see things in a different way than most people. My brain interests me, and I like learning new things on a daily basis. I like things to be in a positive order, and I am very ordered. I am good with people and love meeting new ones.

*Down*

I’m a Christian
A believer
A daily basis learner
A talkative and friendly ordinary kind gentleman.



Below is an acrostic poetry of my handle, Breaker composed by eyestar .Thank you Mona!

Did I miss something?


Oh, I may share with you this prayer—one of my favorite and you should know about so that you could feel the love of God. Let us pray...


Dear God…

I admit I am a sinner and need your forgiveness, I believe that Jesus Christ died in my place paying the penalty for my sins; I am willing right now to turn from my sin and accept Jesus Christ as my personal Savior and Lord. I commit myself to you and ask you to send the Holy Spirit into my life, to fill and to help me become the kind of person you want me to be. Thank you Father for loving me. In Jesus' name.

Amen!




Thank you very much for your visit.
