It is good to live in accordance with Nature, and this includes complying with social mores.

So, if another person is lamenting over a broken item, a death, or any other type of misfortune that it is in their own power to control, it is good to show sympathy; this will make the other person feel better.

However, you should take care not to allow yourself to suffer with him in your mind. And neither should you allow yourself to lament at your own misfortunes in the same manner as the other person.
