Heiden, Switzerland
Heiden is a municipality in the canton of Appenzell Ausserrhoden in Switzerland. Its Biedermeier village around the church square is listed as a heritage site of national significance.
History
Heiden is first mentioned in 1461 as guot genant Haiden.
Around 1650 Wolfhalden and Heiden could not agree about the control over the church. This led to the creation of a church in each village in 1652, making them independent.
The founder of the Red Cross, Henry Dunant, spent his last years in Heiden. The former president of the ICRC, Jakob Kellenberger, was also born in Heiden.
Geography
Heiden has an area, as of 2006, of 7.5 km2 (2.9 sq mi). Of this area, 52.4% is used for agricultural purposes, while 30.6% is forested. Of the rest of the land, 16.8% is settled (buildings or roads) and the remainder (0.3%) is non-productive (rivers, glaciers or mountains).
The municipality is located in the former District of Vorderland on the Kurzenberg. It consists of the village of Heiden and several hamlets near the village.
Heiden (Shinto)
A heiden (幣殿, offertory hall) is the part within a Shinto shrine's compound used to house offerings. It normally consists of a connecting section linking the honden (sanctuary, closed to the public) to the haiden (oratory). If the shrine is built in the Ishi-no-ma-zukuri style, its stone pavement is lower than the floor of the other two rooms, and it is called ishi-no-ma (石の間, stone room), hence the name. It can also be called chūden (中殿) or in other ways, and its position can sometimes vary. In spite of its name, nowadays it is used mostly for rituals.

Big Life (one Last Goodbye)
by: HateenI want you to know
that I loved you everyday
in a special and single way
for all my life,for all my days...for all my days
my big life went away from where i could reach my
dreams
I miss the shining in your smile in those university
hallways,always
(do you need her now)
she´s all I got
(it´s hard to see but she´s gone)
she can´t do this
I´ve been in love with you all my life
(but she makes you sad)
she´ll always be mine
waiting days for your phonecalls
waiting years to be with you
hoping things could be ok
hoping that you could comeback one day
empty days keep me away from my happiness
my big life,my big mistake – my big mistake
and all the times I prayed
all the shame all the pain I tasted
all the songs I´ve made for you
all the letters I´ve written for you
I just wanted to say one last goodbye
Maybe we can try in another life
One last goodbye,just one more time
Maybe we can try just one more time
One last goodbye...
I know you can´t stay,but you´ll always be here
