“In case you are not okay, it's okay not to be okay. ”

That is how Kris Bernal started her inspiring post on her Instagram account.

According to the actress/ entrepreneur, with what the world is facing now, it is normal to not feel okay all the time.

“Life happens, unexpected things happen, not being okay happens. It's okay to not be okay. It's okay to cry for our losses. It's okay to mourn the dreams that didn't pan out. It's okay to be hurt and not have things figured out.”

Kris said being emotional doesn't mean you're weak. Especially now that the world is in a difficult time, it's okay to feel diverse emotions. However, she reminded everyone the importance of seeking the support of people you love.

“Having emotions and feelings doesn't make you weak. Having emotions and feelings makes you human. It's okay not to be okay. If you're going through a hard time right now, seek out the support of people who love you.”


She added, taking a break helps a person get through worries in life.

“Take as much time as you need to feel the emotion and recover. Take the time you need to rest, recharge, and breathe. Take care of yourself the best way you know how.”

Kris concluded her post by saying people don't need to follow what the world says. What's important is to give yourself time and care that you need.

“No matter what the world tells you, you don't have to be perfect, and it's okay not to be okay. ”
