Amen and amen.

Another aspect, I think, is that it is possible to be joyful and sorrowful at the same time. In my outward sorrow, I can have a vein of joy, and in my outward joy, I can have a vein of sorrow. Because the only proper response to the sin and suffering in the world is lamentation, and those things are all around us.

I believe that sorrow and joy should coexist.
