There is nothing about atheism that precludes in being open to possibilities.
Atheism is just not being convinced that gods exist.
I am completely open to being convinced that a god exists.
You're one of the few atheists I have encountered in this forum who truly seems to be open to the existence of God and/or the supernatural. It's my personal opinion that you'll find what you're looking for.

What exactly are we looking for ?
And how do we test it's not manufactured ?
We're all looking for ultimate meaning, but we put boundaries up that limit our ability to find it. Despite the experiences of others we rufuse to consider anything we can't see or touch.
