You will see and hear a few things upon your entree into AA. Try to like some of them. No member of AA condemns you because of what your reputation might be. By the same token a right thinking member will not be very impressed with your reputation or standing in the past or the present. Remember they have sobriety and their interest in you is to help you get what they have. We will always respect the dignity of every man no matter how low he may have sunk.
