Team @ocd had a tough time picking the top content for today given the high quality of submissions. But eventually, winning a tie-breaker and taking today's top nomination is an amazing piece of fiction titled: **"Emotional partial scene from Somebody Want Me by Michelle Sutton"** by edgy author @michelletsz. Nominated by @ma1neevent, the author laces a beautiful story and suffice to say it pulls all the right emotional strings. Cancer, marital rape, divorce - it handles very sensitive topics in a deft manner which only an author with twenty three (23) titles to her credit can.

The curators were impressed with the engaging narrative and the themes  covered were sensitive, touching and thought-provoking. The love of parents, the loss of a loved one, the betrayal from someone you sought everlasting happiness - these and much more make this piece of writing tick all the right check boxes to make it a must read.

The second piece of content to make it to @ocd's daily is this spectacular photo story titled: **"Brewery Bhavana in Raleigh, North Carolina"** by @ddfoodandtravel. Nominated by @elteamgordo, @ddfoodandtravel's amazing photography coupled with the lovely review tempted most of the curators to head to this restaurant asap.
