“Could you,” she said most sweetly, “bring them over? I forgot them.” 

There was a dramatic pause on my side of the cell phone. It took a few
moments for the situation to sink in. 

As I went back into the house, I was chuckling all the way in and picked
up the delinquent keys. 

When I got to the office, I handed them to her with the biggest smile
I've ever had on my face that I can remember. She looked at me and then 
said rather softly, “You're not laughing are you?” 

I recognize I will forget a great deal of things in life. But this
incident, I will never forget and it will always strike a chuckle cord 
in my heart. 

Every once in a while, when nothing is going on, I will look at my wife
and say, “Do you remember the keys?” 

Glancing away from me she will say, “Don't you think it's time to forget
that?” 

Never in a million years! 

“Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I
do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto 
those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of 
the high calling of God in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 3:13-14). 

Some things are worth forgetting as the apostle Paul points out here.
The key to a happy life is knowing what to forget and what to remember.
