Why Do People Blog?

I came upon this question today and I am going to attempt to answer it. Why do people blog? Some responses to this question on the internet were:

1. To have a voice.

2. Some people use it as a journal.

3. To create popularity.

Okay so there are 3 valid answers to my question. But why do people do it? Nobody is going to care about my old cat and my cute dogs. Nobody cares if I am having a bad day or what my favorite color is.

I guess what I’m trying to say is I blog for myself. For my feelings. Sure, some people may read it and think “wow, this girl is strange” or “she has no life” But I am going to use this blog to document the events in my life. So my future children will have something of mine to look at. Because to tell you the truth… I really hate writing in my journal. It is torture to me. That is why I blog.

Why do you blog?

Is it to gain popularity? Because this really shouldn’t be a stupid popularity game. Blogging isn’t High School.
