I have a lot to learn...

I read this a couple of days ago:
Adaptability is intelligence - Intelligence is sometimes defined as the capacity of the individual to adjust himself successfully to his environment, or to adjust the environment to suit his needs.
What is adaptation? It is like the immediacy of the shadow adjusting itself to the moving body. Wisdom does not consist of trying to wrest the good from the evil but in learning to "ride" situations as a floating cork adapts to the crests and troughs of the waves.
I understood it. But then today like 2 hours ago when I was pissing, I realised the reality of this in the way that I am towards people. I adapt the way I act and the way I am to peoples personalities, sometimes even in a manipulative way. I usually do it to avoid conflict, to find out something, or to get something that I want without seeming like I want it.
When I saw this I smiled. It was funny.
