"A little bolder"

Oh, man! I just remembered something from my time in YM.
There was a lesson where the teacher brought us each little rocks. She said, here are some little boulders, and you should always carry them with you to remind you to be "a little bolder" in your missionary work.
I didn't know about the seer stone in the hat at the time. But if I had, oh the opportunities. Regrets!

Contact your YM leader and thank them for this object lesson. You still think about it when you brew your coffee "a little bolder".

We had a lesson with little boulders once. Pebbles actually. We were told to put the pebble in our shoe and walk around. "See how uncomfortable or 'even' painful it is?"
"It's the same as carrying around a sin that you haven't repented of. Go and confess to the Bishop so you don't have to walk around with pebble in your shoe anymore."

This reminds me of this song. I'm not sure if it's saying a pebble in one's shoe is a good thing.
