OCD's support is expanding!
</div>
<br>
<div class="text-justify">
Hello everyone! This is the 1106th compilation post of OCD's latest curation efforts. It has been known that OCD has been supporting leading niche communities under its <b><a href="https://peakd.com/hive-174578/@ocdb/ocd-communities-incubation-program-update-115">Community Incubation Program</a></b>. However, there are still a lot of other niche communities not supported by OCD. This curation initiative will help in supporting those communities.
</div>
<br>
<div class="text-justify">
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. 
</div>

<h4>How this Works</h4>

<div class="text-justify">
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.
</div>
<br>
<div class="text-justify">
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.
</div>
<br>
<div class="text-justify">
Speaking of boost, here are the curated posts for this batch:

<div class="text-justify">
<blockquote>From my garden in the countryside in the State of Falcon, semi-arid zone of Venezuela. There are several species of cactus. Cacti🌵 are native to Central and South America and Africa. Cacti belong to the succulent plants but with thorns, since these help to withstand temperatures up to 60 °C called Cactaceae for their characteristic to accumulate water and nutrients in their trunk, stems, leaves and roots in greater quantities than other plants to survive in dry and arid lands. In addition, they protect birds, reptiles, insects, bats, and mammals because they use their branches, trunks, and roots to make their nests and burrows. Their fruits, pulp, nectar, pollen, and seeds are food.

<div class="text-justify">
<blockquote>Originally I thought takoyaki was something we ate at outside, not something we made at home. So I was adamant about not buying a takoyaki grill or anything like that. It would take up a lot of space and it looked like it would be hard to clean up.
However, when "STAY-HOME" was being called for due to the 2020 COVID-19, we bought an electric griddle with the concept of enriching my time at home, and it came with a takoyaki griddle. So I started making takoyaki from time to time. The pick, as I recall, was bought at a 100 yen store.

<div class="text-justify">
<blockquote>But then, when I needed to prepare for my last aunt's death and did not know it, I discovered Brahms's “Four Serious Songs,” which he wrote to prepare himself for the death of his friend Clara Schumann. I still might not have paid attention, but guess who had recorded it? Brahms got his second chance because my favorite musician Kurt Möll re-introduced him to me … just in time. That also opened the door to me discovering that Brahms has left some amazing German art songs in general. I listened to other artists singing them and realized that “OK, I actually like Brahms, and I'm learning from him. I guess I am grown now.” So much for writing Brahms off.

<div class="text-justify">
<blockquote>We have been living together for more than a decade, but we did not dedicate ourselves, because that is the word, to carry out the necessary procedures to legalize our relationship, because my partner, being divorced, required a previous document, which is cumbersome to get because of the long lines that are formed in the civil registries.
We finally obtained it and set our marriage date, which obviously has us very excited, now that we are very close to the day.

<div class="text-justify">
<blockquote>Yep, you read it well. I have been laying in a hospital in Malaga for the last 6 days now. I woke up Thursday morning with a little back pain, but soon after that, I couldn't stand up, sit down, or even lay down anymore. My neighbors on the camper spot saw me struggling and asked if he could help. I haven't got a big camper van, so I asked if I could lay down in his van. After an hour laying there he realized it was not good and he brought me to the nearest hospital.

<div class="text-justify">
<blockquote>I've used to be a bit wilful. Not a bit, a lot. There were so many things I could grow to dislike in a very short amount of time. Someone told me that my inability to focus on one thing or stay interested in the same things stems from my personality type. To some extent, I agree. I get bored easily which is why you would find me alone most times or in my cousin's.

First I would like to apologize for my absence from the community, but I have been through many situations that kept me involuntarily absent from the platform. The important thing is that little by little I have been solving to evolve, heal and be back with the best possible energy to share each of the experiences of my life.

<blockquote>In most houses in the province or the countryside, there is a backyard where plants and a variety of lovely flowers are taken care of. It has been part of most people's lives, as what I have seen by living here in our province my entire life. And of course, our backyard is not an exception.

I have seen my mother grow her mini garden at home, and also my grandmother in maintaining the cleanliness and liveliness of our backyard by planting different flowers. It seemed like watering them has been part of their daily routine, and I see them enjoy what they are doing. Recently, I joined my grandmother in spending time with her flowers, and I asked if I could take pictures of them.

<blockquote>So we booked some tickets online - because it'll cost more when paying on site at the cash register - beforehand and agreed to meet up at the entrance. Before reaching the entrance we got a glimpse of some of the animals, especially the pink flamingos. There was also an abundance of ducks everywhere, as they were left to roam the vicinity freely.
