1,759,511 and Still Becoming

On September 23, 2025, Glow reached one million views.

I remember looking at that number and wondering what could possibly come after a million.

Less than a year later, I have my answer.

759,511 more visits.

Not another beginning. Not an ending either.

Still becoming.

Glow has reached 1,759,511 all-time views.

Our last milestone was 1.5 million.

Since then, another 259,511 views have quietly found their way here.

That number still feels a little unreal to me.

Not because I think of Glow as small anymore, but because I still remember what it feels like to sit down and write one piece at a time. One thought. One photograph. One painting. One ordinary afternoon turned into something worth keeping.

And then, somewhere beyond my screen, someone reads it.

Then someone else does.

And somehow, over time, those tiny moments become 1,759,511.

The painting behind this milestone is called Still Becoming.

I painted it long before deciding it would become part of Glow’s milestone story, but the title feels right for this moment.

Because that is exactly what Glow is doing.

Still becoming.

Still growing into itself.
Still finding new readers.
Still changing shape.
Still making room for beauty, curiosity, ideas, softness, creation, and all the little things I want to leave behind in these pages.

There is something I love about celebrating milestones without pretending they are finish lines.

This is not the end of anything.

It is simply a marker that says:

Look how far we have come.

And then, quietly:

Keep going.

To every reader who has opened a page, stayed for another, returned weeks later, wandered through the archive, or found Glow by accident and decided to linger, thank you.

You helped build this number.

You helped build this place.

1,759,511 views.

And still becoming. 🤍
