Taking Time Out

Posted by AR on August 12th, 2009 filed in Toccoa Falls

The other day while walking the pathway to Toccoa Falls, I confessed to a friend that years ago when I was at the college, I rarely ventured back into the gorge to see this beautiful site. She nodded in agreement. “I don’t go back here that often. But when I do, I always come away thinking how peaceful the area is.” The inexcusable fact is that I just plain forget it is there. How could I possibly forget that a 186 foot waterfalls is a stone’s throw from my doorstep? Simple, I allow myself to become too busy, too wrapped up in stuff to experience what it feels like to stand a few yards away from this awesome sight. Now, that’s a real problem!
