OCD's support is expanding!
</div>
<br>
<div class="text-justify">
Hello everyone! This is the 2001st 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-154">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:

<blockquote>Chicken asado is a popular Filipino dish. It's a tomato-based stew with chicken known for its savory, sweet, and tangy flavor. The chicken is typically marinated in a mixture of soy sauce, vinegar (I used pineapple juice instead of vinegar), and other spices.

<blockquote>

    Greetings dear friends and users of the Vibes community, here I am again with my Venezuelan cuatro to play and sing you a passage of Venezuelan folk music which I titled: “nos quisimos” (we loved each other), a song I composed a few years ago.

    This song tells or narrates the story of a forbidden relationship, a hidden romance as well expressed in the lyrics, if you pay a little attention you will realize that it is a situation that happens in all societies of the world at different times of human history. Hoping you enjoy it, your friend @italozapata bids you a fond farewell.

<div class="text-justify">
<blockquote>
Without ado, I choose to sing When I’m Gone by Albert Hammond for this week’s theme. For rebirth, it could mean to start over again. Being said so, it would mean to go away or perhaps leave the current state we are in. If ever I will be asked, I just hope that when I’m gone, the people close to my heart would remember to cherish my memories, wish me to find what my fantasies are, and that, even in dreams they can still pretend I am holding them so dear in my heart. If somehow, that rebirth fails me to find what I look for and I decide to lead my way back to them, I hope they could still welcome me with those loving arms embracing me with all the warmth in their heart. This time, I hope you guys will enjoy this song and will stay with me until the very end. Once again, thank you so much guys for being with me and for the support. Sending you all hugs and love from afar!

<blockquote>Greetings to everyone in the Throwback Thursday community! Today I'm joining you for the first time to share a photograph and a story behind it, on this Throwback Thursday. For this opportunity, I chose some images from around 2009-2010, when I was in my first or second year of high school in Venezuela (middle or secondary school), and they would occasionally take us on trips to explore the state. For that occasion, they decided to take us to Negra Hipólita Park/Fernando Peñalver Park, located in Valencia. It's one of the largest parks in the city; the Cabriales River runs through it and has gardens, playgrounds, caneys, and plenty of space for physical activities and recreation.

<blockquote>My mood is affected by the difficulties I face, that is, the magnitude of the problem. But I generally face it with acceptance. Because in life, difficulties will always arise that we must solve or try to solve in order to live in peace of mind. I know that I learn something from every situation that presents itself to me. Thank God, I have learned to manage my emotions. It hasn't been easy, but as I have matured emotionally, it has become easier for me to control them.

<blockquote>To sow the seeds, what I did, was to fill a pot with this soil. But before placing the seeds, I loosened the soil as much as I could, to avoid that if the sowing took place, the roots would be imprisoned with the rigidity of the earth. Then I placed the seeds, and then I placed water on them, and I put water on it every 3 days.

<blockquote>In my case it is meant to be a tool to give my girlfriend (and me) a dream. She is a big fan of amusement parks. For a long time she has wanted to go on a tour of the parks in Florida, but they are absolutely expensive. Not only that, she has the misfortune of having a partner who does not share this passion. Or rather, he likes the parks, but standing in line for hours for a ride is not, and in the USA the lines are hours and hours long. Therefore, queue-jumpers are needed.
She would also like to stay in the parks, in the theme hotels, which of course cost money but offer benefits for fans that make their eyes sparkle. In short, the costs go up a lot.
