General Hospital star Laura Wright has never been shy about sharing what’s on her mind, and the Daytime Emmy-winning actress had an important message for fans today.
Laura Wright Shares Helpful Advice
Reflecting on her past as a 23-year-old, Wright posted a strong message of inspiration on Instagram. “This 23 yr old was ashamed of her body and thought if she could lose 10 more pounds she would be perfect and worthy of love – she wasn’t focused on the things SHE loved just on being skinny enough TO be loved,” the now-51-year-old said.
Adding a photo from that time, showing just how beautiful and perfect she was despite her thoughts, Wright laments about worrying about those things and knows now what wasted time and energy she put towards thinking such dark thoughts.
“Every day all day long these were my thoughts – 30 yrs later I’m finally discovering how beautiful life is,” Wright wrote. “How grateful I am for a body that has been with me and taking care of me for 51 yrs. And how much fun life can be when you decide to live !!”
It’s a message that hopefully will resonate with anyone who is concerned about their appearance and obsessed with their looks, and Wright wants her fans to appreciate who they are and seek out the things that make them happy. Over time, the actress has found that just being happy with yourself and living life to the fullest is the secret to enjoying life and everyone is beautiful!
“Not sure why I decided to share this today. I just got this picture last night and wanted to hug this young girl and tell her how amazing she is,” Laura Wright added, with a hashtag of selflove thrown in. “Happy Beautiful Tuesday”
Earlier this month, Wright posted about some new Splendid Spoon’s ready-made meals, and mentioned in that post that she was also still finding herself: “Still getting to know this woman & I’m enjoying every crazy- beautiful- heartbreaking- amazing moment!!” she wrote.
In Port Charles, Carly Corinthos could maybe use some of that self-reflection herself. With Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) now back from the “dead,” she’s realizing she doesn’t really know who he is after living life as Mike for nine months, and she’s not sure what she truly wants. Will they manage to put this challenging year behind them or will their relationship come crashing down? Stay Tuned!
