Self appreciation – garlic helped save me – Reddit Post

Grew up in a life of hell which led to trying to abort a few times. I was actually ready to go and something inside of me said, plant garlic. If the garlic survives – you survive. If the garlic fails, it’s time to finally let my brain sleep. I planted 1 bulb. And sure shit enough, it survived 9 months later. I did it. That then opened up a beautiful world of gardening along with a spiritual awakening. Now – I look forward to waking up each day to see what this world offers me.

1 started with 1 bulb.. now – I have 35 heads growing, plus beans/cucumbers/tomato/zuchini/cilanto/onions/dill/wildflowers etc.

We can overcome our brain battles. There are more beautiful days ahead of it. We do matter. Just wanted to share a sliver of my story as I know there are many out there. But my story, garlic gave me a reason to live. My body was not ready just yet to go. My soul was ready to emerge. And so here’s a pic of my garlic now!
