No Shame in Caring: It's Never Too Late to Make a Difference

With the overwhelming amount of people judging and shaming each other for anything these days, it's understandable that many people may fear being judged for being "too late" to start advocating for a cause. But is it really too late? And why should we never shame people for this reason?

Everyone's journey is different. Some people may have grown up in families or communities where advocating for a cause was a part of their daily lives, while others may have never been exposed to activism until later in life. We all have our own unique experiences and paths that lead us to different levels of awareness and understanding.

It's never too late to start caring about something. As human beings, we are constantly evolving and learning. Our perspectives and priorities can shift at any given moment, and that includes becoming passionate about a cause. Just because someone may not have been aware or involved in a cause, doesn't mean they can't care about it now. It's never too late to educate oneself and take action for something you believe in.

Shaming someone for being 'late' to a cause can have detrimental effects. It can create a sense of guilt and shame, making people feel like they are not good enough or that their efforts are not valuable. This can prevent them from taking action and being involved in the cause altogether. We should instead welcome and encourage anyone who wants to help. Every voice and effort counts.

Advocating for a cause is an ongoing process that requires continuous education, learning, and action. Just because someone may have started later than others, doesn't mean they cannot make a significant impact. In fact, their fresh perspective and passion can bring new ideas and energy to the cause. We should embrace and support anyone who wants to contribute to a cause, regardless of when they start.

Some causes carry a sense of urgency and the sooner we start being involved in them the better, but shaming someone who wants to help because they did not do that fast enough, won't benefit anyone or anything. 

It's never too late to start advocating for a cause. We should never shame people for being 'late' for caring about an important cause. Instead of judging, we should welcome and support anyone who wants to help.
