I’ve become a person of (some) faith in the past year, and my life has been better for it. But it feels lonely not to fit into either the secular or religious communities—I'm not far enough along the spectrum one way or the other. Is there any way I can meet other people in a similar place? (Sorry, a little long and snowflake-y.)

Is it possible for a rather hardcore atheist to find some sort of spirituality again? Long, but I attempted to keep it concise.

I need to develop a program in the next 4 weeks that combines creativity with spirituality for a group of hospital execs. I'm thinking of using various surprising visual effects to challenge and inspire. Some themes might be the extraordinary in the ordinary, or looking closer at something to see what you missed the first time around.

I turn 40 soon, married. A few years ago I had what I believe to be a major spiritual awakening, but it really hasn't "stuck", to the core anyway.
I have since found the pendulum swing far the other way to where I'm a surprised to find i'm now inclined to: drink to excess, flirt with women (some pretty young), smoke marijuana/ tobacco, listen to stuff like Kid Rock and relishing the vulgarity/attitude, watch porn - (this is mostly all "private" behavior)
is this all indicative a midlife crisis situation? or "spiritual backlash"? or do i need to come to terms that i've taken a road down towards creepville?

I don't follow a religion, and my spiritual life feels so empty without one that it bothers me enough to disrupt daily life.
I believe in nature spirits, and I have a strong spiritual connection with nature. However, I also feel a connection to Christianity that I can't quite identify.

I had planned to embark on a period of introspection following a bad relationship and other life changes but I've been lazy about it. Are there any books that offer a sort of step-by-step course for something that really shouldn't be a step-by-step course?
