OCD's support is expanding!

Hello everyone! This is the 2091st 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:

The hike had been demanding. I was surprised at the trail's ruggedness and difficulty. It was also very risky. It had been foolish on my part not to do my proper research, but to be honest, I don't think anything can prepare you for a raw encounter with nature in the wild.

Love, true love is always intense, but there is something about summer love or summer loves that makes them particularly intense and beautiful. Above all, mostly ephemeral, but sometimes from a summer story a true story of eternal love is born, the kind of love that doesn't believe in obstacles, prejudices or difficulties. Summer has always been a time of fun, enjoyment, trips and meeting and sharing with new people who sometimes make us live unforgettable and very beautiful experiences. Especially those related to love. And I guess the intensity of summer loves are given for two fundamental reasons in my opinion.

This summer, my first summer, I am at home, organizing work projects that I will start after the summer. One of the first things I learned about summer in Spain is that, unless you work in tourism, any project you want to start has to be postponed until after the summer. For Spaniards, and I think for Europeans in general, summer is sacred, as is resting and taking a siesta after lunch. Summer is for vacationing, traveling, and going to the beach. This summer, cousin Laura is visiting.

One of the songs we've been working on is “Mystify” by INXS. I’ve always liked this track, especially the piano with its swing-like rhythm that gives it a unique vibe. The lyrics also have a romantic tone—perfect to dedicate to someone you love or feel strongly about.

I fondly remember looking forward to each school day to head to the center to receive lectures on narrative techniques from Maestros Sergio Cevedo, Raúl Aguiar, and Eduardo Heras León, the founding father of this wonderful project.

I remember when I started going to therapy, the psychologist who treated me at that time told me that I was afraid of rejection because I was looking for approval, because I was afraid of being myself. I had a hard time understanding that because I thought that my anxiety problems and low self-esteem were due to the fault of others, and not because of my lack of acceptance.

These days, on one of my daily walks, I noticed some activity in a shop that had been closed for years. It used to be a grocery store and later a hair salon. But when the owners decided to emigrate from the country, the shop was no longer open.

The film is known as Black Wall, just weeks after its release, and has several aspects similar to other science fiction films, undoubtedly with its own distinctive touch that achieves good quality and reflects the director's work in sharing a story that for many would be crazy, without being able to do anything about it, and most strikingly, being able to discover that mystery. This time, we are presented with the story of a couple who, overnight, find themselves surrounded by a large black wall made of a very strong material in the residence where they live. This is something that makes sense to everyone there, and certain factors begin to emerge that make the film very interesting. We wonder, will they be able to get out alive? Will they be able to break through that wall?

This time I dared to sing something different from what I usually perform, I love this song and maybe because of cowardice I did not dare to sing it, but after thinking about it I decided it was time, I also added harmonies to enhance my presentation, although for me it is usually a process that is tedious I think it's worth it because it adds a lot and this time I liked the end result.

Got up before alarm rings...... Ready to sail on a new journey. It's been days since it started, but still i am calling it a new journey. Journey of competitive exams. It's a tough competition but i have to sustain into it.

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.
