You don't need to experience heartbreak to be an artist
The problem I have with telling people that they need to go out and experience heartbreak and stuff before they can be a good artist is that I don’t know if we should be encouraging people to actively seek out negative life experiences for the sake of having a broader outlook on the human experience (or whatever bullshit terminology is being used these days).
That’s actually a really concerning mentality. Just try to live outside your head a little and do stuff, that’s all.
