Seen
There are several “starts” of wintercreeper (Euonymus fortunei) — such as the one in the photo below — just getting underway. It’s an ivy-like ornamental that spreads by climbing and creeping. The mature plant flowers producing reddish-colored berries later in the season. So far, sounds great!
Native to Asia and imported for landscaping, it is now labelled an invasive species due to its aggressiveness and tendency to climb into trees only to damage or destroy them. Some authors cut it absolutely no slack whatsoever as Nathan Johnson did in “Stop this invader from overrunning our trees.” Guess I’d better use my hoe now and hope ;-)
Done
I integrated elements in the change management process diagram I posted to “Daily Log” yesterday with an adaptation of the “s-curve” variation of the “Let Your Vision Be World-Embracing” diagrams I posted to “Daily Log” on May 9th. Here’s what the first pass looks like:
I’m sure there will be several more versions before it’s settled, but as it stands I have a good starting place from which to explore other concepts about social transformation.

Quoted
The purpose, in brief, is this: that if woman be fully educated and granted her rights, she will attain the capacity for wonderful accomplishments and prove herself the equal of man. She is the coadjutor of man, his complement and helpmeet. Both are human; both are endowed with potentialities of intelligence and embody the virtues of humanity. In all human powers and functions they are partners and coequals. At present in spheres of human activity woman does not manifest her natal prerogatives, owing to lack of education and opportunity. Without doubt education will establish her equality with men. Consider the animal kingdom, where no distinction is observed between male and female. They are equal in powers and privileges. Among birds of the air no distinction is evidenced. Their powers are equal; they dwell together in complete unity and mutual recognition of rights. Shall we not enjoy the same equality? Its absence is not befitting to mankind. 1
