Blogging is hard

Do you have to be opinionated to blog well?

I feel that because I don't have particularly strong opinions on many things it has been difficult for me to blog. I'm one of those people that can see both sides of the story and find it hard to take sides.

Do you have to write well to blog well?

Maybe I'm being a cop-out but I blame my inability to write on the fact that English is my second language. Because of this it has been hard to articulate my thoughts in writing form. I think I am articulate when speaking. How do I translate that onto paper?

I think I'm approaching blogging completely wrong. I'm blogging for others ie readers but I think most bloggers blog for themselves. They write what interests them and see it as an outlet. For me being an accomplished blogger means having lots of readers interested in what I have to say. Without readers I find no joy in blogging. Am I going about this all wrong?

I guess what I'm trying to say is blogging is HARD!
