“It's easier to write from my own life, and it's also more fun. I always write about relationships, for instance, whether they're romantic relationships, friendships, encounters... there's always a lesson to be learned from them.”

Meaning

This reads as a practical defense of autobiography in art. It suggests that familiar emotions and close relationships give the writer both ease and material, and that everyday connection can become a source of insight. The line lands when someone turns a breakup, a friendship, or a family tension into a song or story and finds meaning in it.
