Love Swear carved in Bamboo

While in the western world people like to carve a love swear
in long living trees like oaks,
Thai people prefer the relatively short-living bamboo.
Is this a synonym for the often short-term relationship
between Thai boys and Thai girls ?
Fact is, that relations in Thailand split easily,
while there is a problem occuring.
Thai people hate problems and they also hate to clear problems,
the common way is just to run away.

Also in our team, there are sometimes some problems
and it wasn´t easy to teach the boys another way to handle problems.
Now all of us know, that it is much better to sit together
and try to clear things up, than make the runner.
