Darwin said that survival is reliant on being able to adapt to your environment, but Yvonne Winkler uses a quotation from Mya Angelo to explain to Michael Millward that being happy depends on focusing on being true to your personal values.Yvonne has adapted to her environment; she grew up in communist East Germany before moving to the west and settling in Canada. She explores with Michael how she adapted to enable herself to fit in, and how she only achieved happiness after deciding to focus on being the person she was before the world told her who she should be.
