OCD's support is expanding!

Hello everyone! This is the 563rd 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:

You see, I am a person who strives for peace and coziness. It is my prime personality directive. Nothing makes me happier than a serene, non-dramatic existence. Now don't get me wrong, I love a good fracas from time to time, but as a bit of a sensitive creature, well, let's just say I long to abide in the serene.

Greetings, friends! The first day of summer has pleased us with excellent sunny warm weather, and I decided to go for a walk along the Neva River embankment.

Some days, however, it is a bane, because through my transparent vulnerability, I do get hurt, and my expression of that pain can be both visible and vocal, and not always well thought out. It can be as simple as having my feelings deeply hurt (ok that isn't simple - actually it's quite a complex thing for me - I'm an overthinker!) or finding myself emotionally challenged by injustice, especially repeated injustice (the kind where you find yourself continuously banging your head against brick walls) - In both cases - I collect more t-shirts!

I like dynamics that lead me to reflect and express my opinion and that is why I always connect with this kind of proposals, initiatives and contests. Today we will talk about how to handle other people's corrections or criticisms. In my particular case the word "depends" will be involved in a lot of my personal opinion.

The sign says Varna in Cyrillic alphabet. Next to the left - 100 years the town being tourist destination. What ou can see behind is the Cathedral with its shiny domes. Recently they were cleaned from the patina which was given greenish colour and painted with golden colour. Also the facade was cleaned and now the Cathedral looks like brand new.

The country atmosphere and black and white go hand in hand, at least from my point of view, that's how it seems to me.

Usually, I would love to eat the simple Napoli variation that you can spice up with some extra flavours like garlic. However, sometimes I like to go back to the classic Bolognese version. Since I was a young boy it was always my favourite dish and I would always order the same Bolognese when at restaurants despite my parents suggesting to order something different! hehe

I have been waiting for a few cacti to bloom for the first time this year. One of them was Echinopsis that I grew from seed. It is 6 years old already and didn't bloom a single time. Last year it started to grow buds, but they blasted.

And what happened this year? They blasted too :/
Two other two are Echinocereus types I was looking forward to see in bloom and they did the same. The buds were pretty big and I thought this time I will finally see the flowers. Nop.. not gonna happen.

Yes, I have always tried to know every part of my body. I believe that it is one of the healthiest ways to get to know each other and take care of ourselves because in this way we can detect when there is something that is changing and if it is positive or negative, I also believe that each should be completely open to self-exploration because that way we can accept us better.

Dragon fruit is a healthy and juicy fruit. This fruit contains vitamin C, vitamin B3, fiber, and others. The usual dragon fruit at my area is the red dragon fruit. The taste of this fruit is bland, not flashy. The color is so striking, our lips become red typical of dragon fruit when eating it or our skin becomes red typical of dragon fruit when holding it.

This concludes this batch's curation report. We would like to congratulate those who are featured and supported. Keep up the good work and continue to explore Hive Communities.
