From a distance... - a photo on Flickriver

From a distance...

... sometimes all looks a little bit different. I need this distance from time to time in my life. It is not always easy for me and there are moments where you would like to disappear. My retreat is in the high Swiss mountains, where silence and clear nature are the key. By my "little paradise", I got fresh energy to my soul through the beautiful purity of nature. Actually I feel nowhere closer to my Creator as in the mountains and He fulfills my life with meaning.
I wish you all that you can find a distance, so that you can touch the important things in life a little bit better.
Thanks for your so appreciated friendship, which has already carried me through a lot. Very warm thanks to all my flickr friends.
Kind regards
Erwin

From a distance
The world looks blue and green
And the snow capped mountains white
From a distance
The ocean meets the stream
And the eagle takes to flight

From a distance
There is harmony
And it echoes through the land
It's the voice of hope
It's the voice of peace
It's the voice of every man

From a distance
We all have enough
And no one is in need
And there are no guns, no bombs and no disease
No hungry mouths to feed
From a Distance
We are instruments
Marching in a common band
Playing songs of hope
Playing songs of peace
They are the songs of every man

God is watching us
From a distance

From a distance
You look like my friend
Even though we are at war
From a distance
I just cannot comprehend
What all this fightings for
From a distance
There is harmony
And it echoes through the land
And it's the hope of hopes
It's the love of loves
It's the heart of every man
