Loyalty and Kelly Preston

A A A

Permalink

I have always respected people who were loyal and faithful--which brings to mind Kelly Preston. A long time ago, before I was married, I met Kelly Preston at a club and worked like hell to try and pick her up. She was beautiful, personable, and definitely had allure. At the time I had no idea she was married to John Travolta.
 
In any event, my track record on this subject has always been outstanding, but Kelly wouldn’t give me the time of day. She was very nice, very elegant, but I didn’t have a chance with her, and that was that.

When I later found out she was married to John, I liked and respected her even more. Some people have values that matter to them, and she is one of them. Her loyalty was unwavering and I have always remembered that about her.

Being true to someone is very close to being true to yourself. That’s a valuable attribute in today’s world. I’m sure she was a wonderful mother to Jett and my thoughts are with her and her family after their terrible loss.

Donald J. Trump is Chairman of Trump University.

We are deeply sad for their loss. We followed both John and Kelly. We respected their work. But shared a differnt faith than scientology. That was kellys and John's faith.

Loyal to our faith...and deeply sad for their loss. We give them much love and respect during this time of sadness.

That was a very nice saying that Being true to someone is as the same to being true to yourself. It touched me in someway. When you cheat someone or you lie to someone you are in somekind unreal world.

All the strategies and all the plans you make concerning your own life or the strategies of your workplace would be established on confidence and on consensus. It is very important that in business world you MUST have the same opinion and the same direction with the leaders to carry on the profitable business, it is the most important thing. And you must have confidence with each other. But how you can be sure about someone“s real aims, it is nowadays a little bit complicated. You must make somekind of deal that if you cheat you pay by yourself the consequenses, would that be the right way to make the strategies.

Our love an prayers to the Travolta's. I hope they are comforted by God, their friends and family.

The Travolta family loss was something I did not wan't to believe when I read about it. Knowing what a great man John seems to be, and his family likewise. My thoughts go out to them.

Loyalty and true love are the greatest pleasures in life. When you lose it there is nothing more painful.
I pray for all people who suffer losses and hope they find comfort in close friends, family and their community. Unfortunately, science has not eliminated death, and medicine cannot eliminate all pain.

I share in their loss and suffering. Take care!

I am quite sure that yes, loyalty is it for Mrs Preston. But, oh man, can you imagine what they must be going through right now? I don't think we can, unless, we have buried one of our children. It's heartbreaking.

Time is all we have in life, I truly know how hard is to loose a loved one, and that is why we all must live our lives as if it was the last day, never forget to say how much you love someone.
The only comfort for them is to know that we all die, it is just a matter of time, and they must be strong
for their other kid and for themselves.
God bless them and whatever they believe in.

I am very impress by you Donald Trump, you even find time to post something so nice for their family.
I agree with many things you say. I've read your book Think Big and will read the other ones.
Congratulations for all your achievements in life. You are my hero for this year.

Mr. Trump, you know that there are trials in life, " not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope"

I am impressed with your willingness to share and recognition of the importance of loyalty.

My heart went and goes out to the Travolta's in their loss of that wonderful son,Jett.

Hopefully, I will see you or your representatives in Woburn tomorrow.


Sincerely,
