OCD's support is expanding!
</div>
<br>
<div class="text-justify">
Hello everyone! This is the 952nd 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-101">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>Valencia is the city immediately next to where I live. It is also the capital of the state where I live (and yes, Venezuela is divided into states, not provinces or departments). Honestly, I've never found it fascinating or incredible but it's a very me thing. You see, it's not Los Angeles or Paris, but for a lot of people it has a unique appeal, it's kind of bewitching. Besides, it is one of the most populated cities in Venezuela. Of course, after Caracas and Maracaibo. I am from San Diego, Carabobo. A small municipality connected to Valencia and Naguanagua, where the division between one city and the other is completely imaginary. One valley, three cities, all within a few kilometres.

<blockquote>Let me be honest and get to the point right away, it is easy for me to get into a long winded essay to describe my love for plants. To say I am crazy about plants is a huge understatement. I buy every plant that takes my fancy. This plant I have used as my thumb nail is one of my recent purchases. I was so carried away by the looks of it I knew I had to have it the moment I saw it listed by one of the sellers. The truth is I have bought this plant a couple of times before only to have it die on me.

<blockquote>It's always exciting to go to an event for the first time, much more so when it is their first time. On December 17 was the first GuaraFest, an event that is just being born, from femininity; it is an inclusive project that seeks to open the way to art made by women, which historically has been denied due recognition.

<blockquote>Hello my dear friends of HIVE, I hope you are very well, I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year; we are just a few days away from Christmas Eve, besides being a beautiful time, it is when the little ones of the house want to wear their new clothes and are waiting for the gifts that the Baby Jesus will bring them; thanks to GOD every year we have been able to help with certain things, such as clothes and toys for JAVIER and SOPHIA, who are our godchildren, their mother, besides raising them alone, because the children's father abandoned them, she has not been doing well at work; for me and my partner is a pleasure to support her and watch over the welfare of these children, who deserve to have what any other for this and many Christmas.

<blockquote>Started my day with a cup of coffee. I always begin my day like this to pump up my energy. And today's labor, I work on my plants. I need to reorganize them, trim and repot them if needed. It's been a while since I haven't attended to them due to hectic schedules. And when I get a day's off, I became lazy, watched by favorite show and relaxed the whole day instead.

<blockquote>Everything changed in August 2021, because it was my last period for almost 7 months; my menstruation was absent until the last weeks of February, almost on my birthday, it didn't really cause me much discomfort but I started to bleed non-stop for the rest of March.

<blockquote>Motivated by the fact that the Workshop was in Couple, I didn't want to be alone, so I sent the Flyer to our dear @/ilazramusic, and he of course didn't say no JAJAJ. He was very excited because he also likes this kind of activities and how Bachata is danced in Spain. So with his company and desire to go I got even more excited and then I just had to count the days for such a long awaited moment, hehe.

<blockquote>This time full of nostalgia and joy, without a doubt with mixed feelings. Where we share with our loved ones, but at the same time we miss being with those who have already left, it is the last month of the year, with the smell of parties and celebrations between family and friends. Where we feel that our work carried out from our humble job has been the best and from our hearts we want to end the year with our heads held high.
