Festive seasons are often characterized by warm, fuzzy feelings. Some have great memories, others not so much. However, it is definitely a time when we should all send out positive vibes, whether or not we are feeling our best on the day.

Billie Lourd was doing exactly that when she shared an emotional post about her late mother — 'Star Wars' legend Carrie Fisher and grandmother Debbie Reynolds, both of whom died within days of each other.

"Happy holidays! (But also sad/emotional/weird/stressful holidays!) Sending my love to everyone who has lost someone they loved and is missing them a little extra today," Billie wrote on Instagram.

She was extremely positive and warm despite having lost two of the most important people of her life during the festive season. 

The 'American Horror Story' actress believes in promptness and living in the moment. In her post, she says it's okay for things to not be okay and therefore, one must try and feel all their feelings.

"I see you. It's okay if everything ain't all merry and bright. It can be a mix of all of it. And it's all okay," she posted. Billie also urges her fans to remember people whom they love and have lost on Christmas.

She also urged them to do something special for them. "Feel all the feelings — the good and the not so good. Eat something delish they used to love. Put on one of their favorite songs. Tell a story about them. Cry about them," she wrote. 

Because she understands loss and what it is like to not have a loved one around during the merriest time of the year, the 27-year-old extended her support. She expressed: "Call one of their friends you haven't talked to in a while. Be kind and patient with yourself. Don't grieve in silence. You're not alone."
