OCD's support is expanding!

Hello everyone! This is the 1946th compilation post of OCD's latest curation efforts. It has been known that OCD has been supporting leading niche communities under its Community Incubation Program. However, there are still a lot of other niche communities not supported by OCD. This curation initiative will help in supporting those communities.

This newest curation effort aims to encourage authors to post in appropriate communities even if those communities are not under the incubation program. This will also encourage users to explore more into the different communities in Hive.

OCD curators and community leaders will find posts from other niche communities and recommend them for an upvote. Unlike those communities in the incubation program where curation is focused, this curation initiative is spread out. This will help find undervalued posts from smaller communities that deserve support.

This will highlight both the author and the community where the post is located. This way, smaller niche communities can focus on growing their subscribers and increasing the engagements within their respective communities. A small boost goes a long way.

Speaking of boost, here are the curated posts for this batch:

The overwhelming heat of the present summer, made us leave the house this Sunday. I took advantage of my older brother's visit to invite him for a walk in the park near our house. There is no better place than a park. Where contact with nature is paramount. More than anything, we went in search of a little freshness and distraction, as we have always done, when the sudden changes of temperature, have forced us to do so. You are invited ...

You see, 2024 was an angry year. I was angry everyday, all day and guess who paid for it? If your answer is me, as in Deraa, then you are correct! The only person my anger hurt was me. The worst part was trying to convince myself that it was okay and that nothing was wrong. Alas, as the year ended, I was shown mercy.

Howdy, craft lovers! Today I’m glad to bring you a nice work. It is about flowers with recycled cans and decorative beads. Let's see the materials and the step by step.

This chicken made in a deep fryer is finger-licking good, I hope you crave it too and I encourage you to make it, it's too easy, plus it takes few ingredients and you can serve it with any side dish.

Talking to others about what we feel often paralyzes us because we do not know how to express our disagreements, our feelings, our doubts and other things that limit us to show that fragile part that we think gives us away but in reality frees us.

In fact, we are emotional illiterates because before saying what we feel we are already negatively predisposed to a given situation and instead of speaking we let silence speak for us.

"At the moment of confrontation, avoiding those uncomfortable conversations may seem the most common option, but in the long run, accumulated silence creates distance and misunderstandings that are much more complex to solve, because we prefer to let the other person interpret what is happening to us".

The last week of our honeymoon back in 2023 we had a magical time staying at Mabalingwe, a fabulous nature reserve in Limpopo South Africa. We spent the week on game drives, bird-watching and wandering through the beautiful landscapes of our countries bush, it was pure bliss. On one of the days we found ourselves a sweet Oasis in the middle of game driving.

The client drove from another town and got left beside the road with a broken vehicle! The problem here is that he just bought this car! Second hand though but it has been in one HEAVY hard hitter accident! There is a lot wrong with this car! A lot!

For this occasion I join the initiative corresponding to the sign of aquarius, which you can read here. I have a cousin who is an Aquarian and I wanted to take advantage of this activity to make her an ornament and give it to her for her birthday. I used the art of pointillism, which I really like, as it creates a very beautiful visual effect.

Holla friends! Vegan love to you all. I would love to share with you a cabbage recipe that I just tried out. It is pack with a variety of vegetables and very nutritious.

It is something you should try as well, you will definitely love it.

Good morning dear friends, this Sunday I made a lentil soup with chicken and vegetables, to share with my husband and my children at home and so spend a nice time and taste that rich lentil soup that we like so much. And I wanted to share this recipe with all of you, I hope you like it, let's start with the ingredients.
