Let your heart choke in sympathy but the joy and grief have to be translated into service, they should not be mere emotions...

An attitude of generosity; 
of fortitude in the presence of sorrow
and loss, a spirit of enthusiasm to do good,  
to be of service to the best of one's capacity-
 
These build up the mind as well as the body. 
Practice the attitude of joy when others are joyful
and of grief when others around you are grieved. 
 
Let your heart choke in sympathy . 
But, the joy and grief have to be translated
into service; they should not be mere emotions.
