Joe,

The best way to become the Lighthouse is to start making a great life for you and your son. What kind of man do you want to be? Instead of worrying about who dumped who????? Start mapping out a awesome life for yourself. Then maybe someday down the road (years most likely) she may want to join you.

Dude I know it sux but you just started this journey and is likely to go on for a very long time. Now you can wallow around and feel sorry for yourself or you can roll up your sleeves and start doing the hard work.

What's it going to be Joe?
