ways in which dave lowensohn makes me a better person:

#24.. knowledge-giving.

the other day, dave completely reshaped my world as it pertains to the word “ambivalent” (and my “ambivalent”-pertaining world was an oft-visited one).

i have always used the word ambivalent to mean blandly, uncaringly neutral. if i was ambivalent toward something, i had no strong opinion, didn’t really care either way, etc..

it turns out that ambivalent means 50/50, but balanced between strong pros and cons. that ambivalence implies passion.

just another reason to like being in a band with dave.
