Meagan Good’s estranged husband, DeVon Franklin, took to Instagram to share an emotional photo he claimed he shot months prior. In the photo, Franklin wept and wrote a long, cryptic message for fans.

On January 1, the servant of the Lord posted, his wishes and prayers for the New Year, writing, “I took this picture a few months ago, I’m not much of a crier so in a moment of deep pain and peace, I took this picture. It captures best how I feel.”

“I share this with you because it is the most honest way to start this year. I know we are starting a new year yet I don’t wish you a Happy New Year…I wish you a Happy True Year.”

Then he got into a long-winded explanation about the difference between “New Year” and “True Year.”

“Why,” he asked. “Because just because it’s NEW doesn’t make it TRUE. So often I’ve come into a new year with all the things I hope to do better and I would carry around this feeling of ‘I didn’t do enough last year’ or ‘I’m not enough so I must do…more.’”

Franklin continued, “I’m breaking my addiction to the ‘new’ and working on being fully committed to what’s ‘true.’”

“My prayer for you is the same prayer I have for myself, To have the truest year of life. True peace. True happiness. True friends. True love. True work.True fun.True faith. True money. True joy

True purpose.”

“In our truth is where we will really meet God and from that meeting,” Franklin explained. “He will guide us, correct us and help us become the truest versions of ourselves. I’m ready for that.”

Franklin also spoke to being in “pain and peace” at the same damn time. Whatever that means

“I am fully in pain and peace as we start 2022, and that’s the truest place for me to be.”

“As the great philosopher Wyclef 🙂 said: “I’ll be gone til November”…meaning I’m taking a break from posting on social for a while, maybe not until November, but you get the point. Thank you for your prayers, I feel each of them and I’m praying you…here’s to the true (whether old or new). Happy True Year,” he concluded.

 

The tears and the pensive post may come as a surprise especially because Franklin is the spouse who initiated the divorce from Good. The couple wed in June 2012 and were married for nine years. 

While Franklin is crying in selfies, Good

was seen serving looks and looking forward to new beginnings while trusting the Lord.

 

Happy “True” Year, y’all.
