<h1>OCD DAILY - Issue #78</h1></center>
<br>
<center>Welcome to the 78th issue of **@OCD Daily!**</center>

Issue #78 highlights content from ten (10) fantastic Steemit Content Creators! The OCD team on its journey continues to search tirelessly throughout Steemit for undervalued gems as provided by relatively new users.

Today our curators, under our steadfast leader, @acidyo, have delivered ten incredible pieces of original content to share with you! These works as provided by newer Steemit users don’t have the audience which their quality content deserves. @OCD strives to provide that audience and intends to showcase Steemit users who put in tremendous effort to create flourishing content.

<center>***The nomination process**
*A curator will **FIND** a piece of work (typically from newer users), within 24 hours that piece has been submitted from the curator to the @ocd team, votes tallied and the pieces with the most votes are placed into the compilation.**</center>

<center>We encourage you to visit these blogs and to show these great Steemians your support and encouragement.</center>

<center>*If you enjoyed their work give them a **Follow** or maybe even say **Hello**!*</center>

<center>All of the content as chosen by our curators is undervalued, but there is always one piece that rises to the top. That piece is seen as universally appreciated and valued making it OCD’s Top Nomination of the Day.</center>

Today’s Top Nomination comes from @whatamidoing who explores and explains the balancing act that _is life_. He touches on his thought process moving forward on steemit, and it is a post I think all of us who have been on steemit for a few months can relate to. Curated by @jeanpi1908

Our second post for today comes from artist @adrianv curated by @mk40. This is a beautiful piece of abstract art with close ups, and incredible details. He leaves the interpretation up to the viewer which is truly what makes his piece great.

Our third gem is a very thorough instructional article on getting rid of cabbage worms by @halcyondaze with a dtube video to go along with it. This is part of a gardening series, and I have no doubt he will be an aid to the thriving gardening community here. It is apparent that he is a pro in his craft, and this gem was curated by @saywha

Our fifth piece is written by @lazaruslegion as a dual language post (english/deutsch) curated by @thethirdeye... on how modern technology takes away our social nature little by little. Explores the emotion from the feeling of butterflies in your stomach to feeling nothing through text.
