“Family and friends are hidden treasures, seek them and enjoy their riches.“
— Wanda Hope Carter

Insights on Today's Quote

Family and friends aren’t always flashy. They’re not billboards screaming for attention. Sometimes they’re just a quiet presence, a voice message when you need it, or someone who laughs at your dumbest joke like it’s peak stand-up. They’re easy to overlook, like that comfy hoodie buried at the back of the closet. But once you put it on—man, it feels like home.

The “seek them” part matters too. Because let’s face it, we don’t always do the best job of that. We ghost. We isolate. We get “too busy.” And those little riches? They start to collect dust. But when you make the effort—grab coffee, send the text, show up—what you get back isn’t small. It’s laughter that resets your mood. It’s support that makes the hard days bearable. It’s someone reminding you who you are when you’ve kind of forgotten.

So yeah, seek them. Treasure them. Because in a world selling us shinier distractions by the second, the real treasure isn’t new—it’s just been waiting for us to remember.

Your Challenge

Reach out to one person you haven’t connected with in a while—family or friend.
Not a “like” on their post. Not a meme.
A real message. A call. A voice note. Something with soul.

Tell them something honest:
“I was thinking about you.”
“I miss our talks.”
“You mean a lot to me.”
Or even just, “Hey, I wanted to check in. How’s your heart?”

You’re not fixing anyone’s life. You’re just showing up. That’s the treasure part. The connection. The reminder that they matter—and so do you.

Let the rest unfold from there. (1, 2, 3)
