Warren Buffett has been dubbed the "Oracle of Omaha," for his wide ranging views on economic, political, and social issues. He is known as the sage from Omaha, for that is where the company headquarters for his firm, Berkshire Hathaway, is located.
While he was attending the Allen & Company conference, an annual gathering of technology and media leaders, in Sun Valley, Idaho, he was asked, "What was the best advice you ever received?" The answer he offered surprised everyone, for the multibillionaire made no mention of money. Instead, he spoke about his father teaching him how to live and love. Buffett learned from his father, "The power of unconditional love. I mean, there is no power on earth like unconditional love. And I think that if you offered that to your child, I mean, you're 90% on the way home… And I would say that every parent out there that can extend that to their child at an early age, it's going to make for a better human being." Following his own advice on the triumph of love over money, Buffett lives in a modest 6,000 square foot home and is donating 99% of his wealth to charity.
Jeremiah told the Israelites there would be a new covenant. The new covenant would not be written on tablets of stone; rather God "will put my law in their minds and write it on their hearts." This is the greatest advice we can share with anyone -- the love of God and neighbor needs to live in our minds and hearts. If we all practice this, then we will all be "a better human being."
