I believe the most beautiful and elegant answer to this question is from Churchill. "On a peaceful afternoon, I sit at my desk on which there are only a pen and scores of white papers; I write. And this is the most beautiful thing in this world [1]." And, to be pragmatic, there are many advantages by writing a blog.
To write is to think better [3, 6].
Exhibit oneself
Practice writing skills [2]
Other reasons in these three articles from Weipeng Liu [3]
Write down one's beliefs and values [4]. Build the value hierarchy.
After one has read many books, he wants to write. The inspiration is from [5], a blog of an art professor.
It is easier to share with friends about articles, books, movies, and thoughts, like what she does [5].
In our blood, we want to receive the acceptance, agreement from others. And we want to be corrected by others [13]. Just like the academia, when a researcher finds a great principle, he wants to share with his peers, or to be more general, with other human-beings.
To publish a book one day, just like what they and others did [7, 8, 11].
I want to write a fiction one day. I want to use the good expressions used in these books [10].
Technical blog. To help others avoid pits (potential detours) [9].
To keep interest dairies, e.g. about clarinet, tennis, hiking, etc. [12].
Sometimes I really don't want to write and just want to waste my time doing easy things.
But after I read some books (especially [6]), I come back again to want to write. And after I did it, I appreciated that I did it.
Postscript (P.S.): The principle of the content of the writing: Only write the content that is useful to you and your potential readers [3].
