Only Peace or Joy

 I, like the Lamanites, can be changed to become like Christ. I can choose to reframe or redefine events as either neutral or good, and feel either peace or joy in every circumstance. I was not meant to feel anger fear or sadness except in very rare and particular circumstances to save my life. I am capable of feeling either peace or joy in all others.

See Helaman 1 intro 

The Path

He is there to be my example. Emotional control. To be in a body with a lizard brain, but never to be hijacked by it because I've learned to rewire automatic responses of anger fear and sadness to trigger peace and joy instead. It's a long road, but it can be done. At the end is exaltation. Only feeling what I want to feel because I control what circumstances mean, and my reaction will be what I have chosen.

See D&C 76:21
