The idea was there, lying dormant for a long… long time. But it’s better late than never. So today, a day after completing 5 years of marital bliss (or blunder), and just before I go for lunch, I took the leap of faith and decided to start the blog.
Life’s journey is a paradox - from known to unknown and as we know life exists in between these two extremes. Thus my blog title “Known Unknown and in Between!” is a tiny corner on the wide wild web that I can call my own (umm.. till the time I pay for the domain name fee at least). This is my corner where I can put up my raves, rants, sane (or insane) thoughts, something that thrilled me, something that kept me wondering, or something that kicked me too hard!
Once a friend of mine asked me a very valid question why www.divakarbagari.com. For the benefit of all, let me re-iterate that famous dialog from the movie “Diwaar” where the honest son wins over by throwing an insane line “mere paas maa hai” (I have mother with me) against his rich but dishonest elder brother.
As a caring father as I am, I have invested my hard earned money into this domain name so that in future, on one momentous day, among his flashy and bragging friends my son can loudly and proudly say “mere paas mere dad ka .com address hai!” (I have with me my dad’s .com address and since i may not leave him much in the name of inheritance). Take that! And while I am at it, let me dare say one day my grandchildren can boast of the same :)
And for the skeptics, I thank lord the domain name was simply available.
I welcome everybody “Known… Unknown and in between” to join me on this new journey. So bless me with the most sought after blessing in the blogging world, the blessing of “A Blog a Week”. Amen!

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts through this blog. I wish you have "a blog a week".
And, don't worry, I am sure you will leave a legacy in inheritance for SPB, not just this .com name. Best of Luck!!
Cheers.

Great start, except the title. Rumsfeld did screw the world enough with his infamous know/unknown paradox(“There are ‘known knowns’—these are the things we know we know. There are ‘known unknowns‘—that is to say, there are things that we know we don’t know. But there are also ‘unknown unknowns’—these are things we don’t know we don’t know”).
I wish you well with your blogging. Keep on updating your Facebook with the latest blog; rest assured I will keep dropping random lines every now and than until you get sick of my comments.Say hello to SPB
@prabhakar: thanks!keep visiting.
@shiploo: its good to see you buddy. you are most welcome to drop more than few lines. in my defense i would just say, my world view is very different from his!
