MoreLife is a collection of poems, lyrics and hymns written by our mother, Beatrice Youil. Interwoven in her words is the story of a life. Its enduring hardships, uncertain future, an insoluble faith in God and love for the human spirit. Life can be read in Assyrian if opened from the back cover, or read in English from the front. In moments of quiet contemplation, I hope this work will provide you with inner solace and strength in this constantly changing world. Less
