OCD's support is expanding!

Hello everyone! This is the 1765th 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:

There comes that time of the day when your body asks for something sweet, something irresistible. And this is where I come in with a perfect recommendation to sweeten your Saturday! Today I'm taking you to Pastelería TDK, a chain that has conquered Maracay with its top quality sweets at prices that won't break your pocket.

Family and friends who know me for years will definitely know the answer. Without any hesitation, it's definitely personal happiness for me.

Personal happiness means a lot to me, and I think we live primarily to enjoy our lives and be happy. For me, happiness can exist in many forms and be interpreted in many ways.

On a basic level, it's probably your state of mind or your mood on a daily basis. Life's tough sometimes, and we all have bad days, but I think it's worth the effort to always start our day being happy and look forward to whatever comes our way. It's also a mindset I guess, and I have learnt over time to be more optimistic in my life, and always believe that things will get better over time.

For me, happiness at this basic level is easy to obtain. Whenever I need to lift my moods, and get over an unhappy incidents, one way is to turn to good food and desserts! It could be just a good burger and fries...

This is kinda weird for me already, reviewing a movie like this. It's not a Korean movie? An adventure movie? Okay, let's just go with it for the sake of seeing something different! Those were my words when a friend talked about the movie and I downloaded to see it with my friends who stopped by at my place that day. It's best to see a short movie for a short visit, right?

On Saturday morning, I had to drop my son off at the university. Once I dropped him off, I decided to stroll around the campus. I came across a small fish pond that was just begging for some photos. I had no intentions looking for reflections they just showed their beautiful selves.

What a neat little fish pond that can disconnect you from the stresses of everyday life. I know if I was a student here, I would visit it by taking a seat on the benches that surround it. The reflections show many of the trees around it, along with a piece of art. The wind was none, the sun was bright, and the temperature was cool sitting at about 53° F (12° C).

Normally my prayer includes many requests from beginning to end. A few days ago I was in a coaching session where they gave us a couple of tips to reduce anxiety at work or in general; a technique consists of two steps: first, take a deep breath and second, think of three things for which we are grateful. At the moment I had to think of those three things, I thought of my family, my loved ones and my faith; for me it was a huge relief to see that what gives me the most joy and happiness, what I am most grateful for, is not something that can be bought with money; now, the next question is, who would I thank for having those three things with me?

As I wrote in the title for this weekend I have chosen to write a few lines about the second choice and yes for me it is quite a difficult one because I like both.

I'll start with a vacation in a hotel in the city which in my opinion can be very relaxing, now this may differ from individual to individual, and yes, I have sometimes spent vacations in a hotel.

There have been a lot of mental challenges over the past few weeks. Nothing horrible, but definitely several things that have really thrown off my writing abilities. This has been something I've had to adapt to, and it may change and impact my writing, but the most noticeable impact is that I've not had the desire to write on many occasions.

I've mentioned it before, in that I am generally a person with an upbeat mood and positive mindset. I do prefer to be in that state of mind but there are sometimes that we get hit with something, by our own fault or not, that throw that shit for a loop of correction and reflection. I've had many of those recently and it's really been a challenge.

I made up my mind and travelled for over 13 hours journey on the road. My family kept calling to know how far as they were scared just like me. Thankfully, I got to the camp safely with other corp members who made the journey interesting.

Sometimes I create the obstacles in my life myself and sometimes I don't. In certain circumstances it is other people who create the obstacles for me. In certain circumstances, it is other people who create the obstacles for me. Once, I told a coworker that I wanted to sign up for a course in my specialty and, without telling me, she took advantage of this information and enrolled before me. She left me behind, taking the last remaining spot and I was unable to excel, which meant I could increase my salary and I needed it at the time because my mom was sick. I might not have communicated to her like other coworkers did, but at the time I trusted my coworkers too much and believed they were all good people and loved me.

What I cooked for our lunch yesterday was "Vegetable Okoy or Vegetable Fritters with a slightly spicy dipping sauce. So, join me now as I show you how I did it, but please bear with me because I can only cook simple and just a normal homemade viand or dish which my family and I share for our daily meal. So, let's go...

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.
