"Why do you keep talking about my past mistakes?" said the husband. "I thought you had forgiven and forgotten."
"I have indeed, forgiven and forgotten," said the wife. "But I want to make sure you don't forget that I have forgiven and forgotten."
Sinner: "Remember not my sins, O Lord!"
Lord: "What sins? You'll have to prod my memory. I forgot them long ago."
Love keeps no record of wrongs (1 Corinthians 13).
