Good conversation can bring people together. 能真正一起走下去的，是能聊在一起的人。

Long everlasting loyalty and friendship are hard to come by. While you may wonder how long such things will last. In fact, regardless how wonderful things or people are they cannot stand the test of time. Let alone stay that way forever.

在這個忠誠度大大折扣的年代，你會問，什麼樣的東西才能長久？再美的人事物，都抵不過時間的催化。

The lyric of the theme song of Great Gatsby, “will you still love me when I’m not longer young and beautiful?”, demonstrates our prevalent uncertainty.

Apparently it’s all in the hormones. In plain English is called mutual attraction and yes there is no principle to it at all. For instance you may be attracted to short and ugly people which could be quite shocking to people around you .My close friends are always teasing me by saying: “Miss Martinez, your standards for men are really special, and your taste is also quite unique.” I don’t really care much about physical appearance, and for me, the most important thing is the feeling, no matter what nationality, colour, age, religion, education, occupation and income, only when our souls can communicate, Mr. right will eventually show up.

The so-called communication between two souls, in the final analysis, means whether you two like talk together.

To sum things up The so called communication between two souis means whether you two have good conversations.

電影《了不起的蓋茨比》的主題曲裡不是這樣唱著麼？“will you still love me when I’m not longer young and beautiful?”這一句道出了我們對於永久的不確定性。

所謂的荷爾蒙，其實是一種相互吸引，沒有道理可言；你可能會喜歡上一個長得又矮又醜的人，連你的朋友都詫異不已。我的朋友們一直拿我開玩笑，“馬蒂內斯小姐，你的擇偶標準實在是舉世無雙，眼光也是很獨特。”我從不是一個外貌協會的人，對我而言，最重要的還是：feel（感覺）：不分國籍，膚色，年齡，高矮胖瘦，宗教，學歷職業，收入，只要soul(靈魂)能夠交流，那就是那個值得繼續走下去的人。 而所謂的靈魂交流，歸根到底就是，你們是否能聊在一起。

We will eventually fail to pursue real freedom/happiness due to many external factors and limitations of our physical body. The world is large, and I cannot ensure that every time l will travel every inch of land, but our soul is limitless. A good relationship is, two of you would be better, can talk as your wishes and always have common topics to talk about when being together. Matched partners or partners can be considered the true sense of the game, otherwise a beautiful empty superficial appearance cannot last long. 

The so-called playmate is just like this. You, like me, have lots of friends and regard ourselves as being capable of dealing with all men, but only a few people can be considered real friends. The older we get, the harder we meet loyal true friends and people we like communicating with, because we have to own too many familiar qualities, firstly, family values, for example, I am an advocate of social equality, racial equality and same-sex relationship. They are totally the same with us, but cannot be treated equally, and many people even wear blinkers to see them. Who are we to judge other’s way of life? I never mind telling others that I have lots of gay friends, whose lives are incredibly better and interesting than the average joe.

Besides,  hobbies and interests should be the same as well, so you can have common topics and finish pieces of seemingly impossible things in life, such as diving in the most beautiful diving sites in the world, learning the authentic flamenco in Seville, getting a six-pack abs and peach hips…

Sure, the most important thing is that you are willing to compromise and spend time on this relationship. Every relationship needs to be managed wholeheartedly, and no one must be on your side. Never take things for granted, be modest and generous, what you achieve will be more than a friendship or love.

我們終究會因為許多外在的因素，身體受到各種限制而不能真正意義上去追求自由；世界很大，我不能確保我每一次的足跡會踏遍每一寸土地，但我們的靈魂是不受限的。一段真正良性的關係便是，你們在一起，彼此會變的越來越好，可以隨心所欲地聊天聊地，總有說不完的話。旗鼓相當的伴侶或夥伴，才能算真正意義上的博弈吧，否則空有一副美麗的皮囊，也熬不過三個春秋。

而所謂的玩伴亦是如此。你或許同我一樣，有很多朋友，你覺得你自己八面玲瓏，但其實真正走心的也就那幾個人。我們的歲數越大，就越難交上知心的朋友，也越難找到可以聊的到一起的人。不是我們不願意，而是要具備聊到一起的素質，你們有太多東西需要相似：首先價值觀需要相同。比如，我是一個宣導社會平等，種族平等的人，也支持同性關係，他們與我們沒有任何差異，卻不能接受同等的社會待遇，很多人還會帶著有色眼鏡看待他們，可我們憑什麼去評判別人的生活呢？我從不介意的告訴別人，我有很多同志好友，他們比任何人都活的精彩。

除此之外，其次，興趣愛好也要相同。擁有共同的興趣及話題，才能在人生的道路上共同完成一件件不可能完成的：。比如一起相約去潛完世界上所有最美麗的潛點；一起去塞爾維亞學最正宗的佛朗明哥舞蹈；一起努力健身，練出完美八塊腹肌蜜桃臀。。。

當然，最重要的還是，你願意妥協與在這段關係中投入時間，任何的關係都需要靠用心經營，這個世界上，沒有誰應該留在誰的身邊的。凡事不要理所應當，多一絲謙讓與豁達，你收穫的將不僅僅是一段友情或是愛情。

Miss Martinez wants to do the same thing.If we like communicating with each other, then let’s be friends.

It may not last forever, but at least we have a collision of fantastic spark when we are together. I hope the inspiration and achievement will encourage you to dance a beautiful pace in life.

Last Thursday, the high-end social salon brand under Sie, MisM, held a cocktail activity “Night of Hemingway” at  Yongfoo Elite. People Tasted Hemingway’s cocktail, enjoyed the black-and-white videos, listened the jazz and knew new friends with different backgrounds to salute Hemingway across time and space in a former French Concession Villa. Like-minded people gathered together sharing their love for Hemingway, black-and-white movies and cocktails.

馬蒂內斯小姐想做的也是這樣一件事。如果我們能聊得來，那就請和我一起走下去。我不能說，那會是天長與地久，但至少我們曾在一起碰撞出美麗的火花，願那一絲靈感與收穫可以激勵你在日後的道路中，舞出更美麗的步伐。

上週四，Sie旗下的高端社交沙龍品牌MisM與雍福會碰撞出了一場主題為“海明威之夜”的雞尾酒主題活動，在上海法租界的這樣一座老洋房裡，隔空致敬海明威；喝著他最愛的雞尾酒特調，欣賞著黑白的影像資料，聽著爵士，結識著有著不同背景的新朋友。正因為，這些都人喜愛著海明威，黑白電影和雞尾酒特調等，而這些元素也讓這這些志同道合的人聚在了一起，聊在了一起。
