Good advice

"To be angry is to yield to the influence of Satan," said President Monson in his concluding address of Saturday night's priesthood session in the Conference Center. "No one can make us angry. It is our choice. If we desire to have a proper spirit with us at all times, we must choose to refrain from becoming angry. I testify that such is possible."

All are susceptible to feelings that, if left unchecked, can lead to anger, he added.

"We experience displeasure or irritation or antagonism and, if we so choose, we lose our temper and become angry with others," he said. "Ironically, those others are often members of our own families — the people we really love the most."
