Why are we compelled to write blogs?
This question has been on my mind lately, ever since i started my own blog. Why is it that i and so many others are compelled to write blogs even thoe not many people will even read them. Maybe we find blogs a way to express ourselves, similar to a diary, yet with the feeling that someone else will read our words.

What makes blogs so exciting or addicting that we are compelled to read or to write them. Clearly i don't know as this is the topic of my Blog. Lately thoe i have found Blogging rather exciting, now for thoe's of you who do read this, I can't say that you feel the same way about it as i do.
Perhaps Blogging is the wrong word, maybe it should have been why do we write? Words are used to express ourselves, to communicate to others or to tell a story. Words are important in our world, and perhaps people write to leave their mark on the world before they "go".
Why am i writing this? Good question, i really don't have an answer to that. I don't even do my English essay's, poem's, stories to the last minute before they are due in, because i have no motivation to write for school.
Yet i am motivated/compelled to write this blog.

Hey man, now this may seem silly but i think i know why we write anything at all.
I think it shows that we still have control over certain parts of our lives. after all we arent being told to write these blogs, we write them because we want to. and because we can. not because we have to. if that makes sense?
I mean, if someone tells you that you cant have ice-cream, you want ice cream. human nature really. to be in control of your own life?
Blogging is simply a way to do that. we have no authoritive figure telling us to write about. therefore we dont feel pressured?...i suppose lol
I like the way you think, thoe i guess i have to respond to your question here, which means that you probably won't check it lol. But your reply makes sense
