it will be a stone, maybe only a pebble, but it WILL change the course of the river.
And "just" planting your garden is no small thing. If you can then exchange some of the fruits of your labor, who knows what comes of it.

I wish you all the best, no matter which positive thing you plan to undertake. I personally, having been depressed myself, found great pleasure in just smiling at random people and complimenting them when appropriate.
