People are aware of life when they are aware of death

Couple of days ago you hated everyone, today you're so happy you've cried and you were ready to commit suicide? Those teenage hormones haven't made a dent on you eh? You need to vent these feelings more often so they don't build up to those levels. An exam can be taken again if it's failed. It ain't worth killing yourself over.

Congrats on passing though.

Congratulations!

Congratulations!

I'm sure you worked hard to get that result! Congratulations!! And go on!!

Very well...

CONGRATULATIONS!
We are please to get informed by you that...

Lady karen. .All the best for you to congratulate your achievement. .Keep going on but you know one thing that i found a contrast you have after knowing that you studied nursing but you always talk about death, desperation, commiting suecide. . .Lady Karen. . .Good Luck to have a great life

I'm a bit late but congratulations anyway.

You need to vent these feelings more often so they don't build up to those levels.

It is as he said (as ever). If you don't vent regularly, you end up like me - and you wouldn't want that.

Maasha-Allah! .
Although I agree with Mik. Exams can be taken again, career decisions can be re-considered. But well done. You worked hard for it. It's a tough career that you've chosen and you'd be well advised to consider how you plan to deal with your emotions during times of stress. I do believe that you'll do well. .

Congratulations on passing. I hope you won't leave us though... or i'll rip your head :)

haha. we can do this!

It should be your plans that matter, not your dad's. .
But I do understand what it's like for you. .
In some cultures, women are expected to marry and never have a career. .

In my culture men and women alike try very hard to achieve that.

Your culture or chav culture? .

British culture you twonk.
Chavs don't have a culture, as they don't know the meaning of the word. They don't know the meaning of most words, now that I mention it.

.
Well, I was close! .

It's still there for ownercomments but that's it.

I thought she was referring to the fact that the new "Write a comment" text box doesn't have the different background anymore.

Let me toss in another CONGRATULATIONS!

Congrats! the lord has made for you. we must just have go through
a hardship and so much pain within us to make us humble. we know that this is not just simple, that other people can't understand only you & God can feel inner our tremendous feeling. there is those people have the wrong reason but the truth will always prevail. just always stays in truth keep your words. because God always there watching us. wants you to seek you him in every way sincerely, and he will do the rest that only God knows what you desire... LRV
bear the pain that is crucial and rely all of to him... God bless

Yeah, she didn't do any of it off her own back. The floating wizard did it for her.

Ok, after giving it some thought, I feel the need to add a more in-depth response.
@Mik. What Anonymous said above, and what I said in my first comment on this page amount to the same thing. Yes, Karen's achievements are laudable. However, from an Islamic perspective, nothing is possible without first having the basic tools to achieve it. Everything we have is God's will. We breath because we are alive, because this is God's will. Our life is, in and of itself, a gift from God. This is the Islamic view point. It does not suggest that we can sit back and relax. We still have to make the effort, but without the gifts that come from God, no amount of effort can achieve anything. A man without eyes cannot see no matter how hard he tries. Short of surgically implanting a camera or an eye and connecting it to his brain, there is nothing that can change this. But even the camera exists and works only because God has given us the means to develop it.
Having said this, I do acknowledge that you have a different view on the subject of God. And I respect your right to hold that different view. .

I just feel that saying "The lord has made for you" greatly diminishes her part in passing these exams, a dangerous thing to do in a post where someone has willingly admitted they were contemplating suicide if they failed. I've seen things like that before that've resulted in the suicide of the patient and the religious people shrugging and saying it was god's will. They never care about the people that die as a result of their actions, just getting others on their side in an attempt to reassure themselves against their doubts via sheer weight of numbers. I've lost too many people that way in my time, way too many.

Everything I've ever had or done has been a result of my hard work. Looking at it the other way simply says god loves me and provides for me above most others. That's not fair to me, it's not fair to them and it's not fair to any deity that actually exists. If all men are created equal by god then we're on an even playing field when we start off and only who we are differentiates us and makes some stand taller than others. Putting our accomplishments in god's hands for giving us life in the first place is the same as saying that our parents are responsible for everything we've ever done, and if you'd met my family and compared them to me you'd see why that idea appals me.

And that's my view of it.

Very true, the basic tools to achive your goal is hard work and best effort to achieve something.. above all is your faith in God. all your action will portray your image and your decission will brings to your position and your character will determine your Destiny.. people who are trying to commit suioide are looser they don't realized how much god love us so much to give us and save our life. Failure is the important test to win the challenge. why we do spend so much time and money for our education if we are not learning and you afraid of failure? you just have to believe your ability to prove something that nothing is imposible that we cannot make it. for all mankind no one is born to be a looser, We are all winner its judt have you you take the racwe of your goal. God created us to value our life had given to us. instead let your self allow in your room the stupidity things in your brain,instead you should think your really purpose in life and have an objective to accomplish that god wants you to be. Lets all we have our mission and vission in life. The bear of working hard is bitter but the of fruit is very sweet have a meaningful life wishing you having the most of happiness in Life Sweetie...LRV

I don't think I've heard it put quite so bluntly before.

Since I notice no one seems to have answered the really old CSS question above and it has not been fixed yet.

the background image of the text area in the for the comments disappeared?

To bring the background back, this selector should be changed

/*Comments Textarea*/
#message {
...
}

to this
[Edit: It seems that #message still exists - it is the textbox when you edit a comment I'll assume that you want that textbox to have the background as well. ]

/*Comments Textarea*/
#message, #comment {
...
}

By the way, I've not actually tested it so it might not be quite right.

That should be the answer Moe. I tried to put that up myself a while back but it obviously didn't get through the network. .

As for the suicide comment, these people say these sort of things to absolve themselves of responsibility for their actions. They will happily drive others to death for not believing their way then say they're weak or losers or that it was god's will that it happened. Anything to stop them from facing up to the consequences of their actions. That's true weakness from true losers.
