An Epiphany For An Atheist

What does it matter if there is not an afterlife containing my consciousness and death is truly death? My fate is still no better or worse than any of the high or low born in human history. As a benefit, my energy and matter will pass on to a myriad of other forms. Some of it living, some of it elemental, but all of it organic in the clockwork of the universe. Eventually, part of my energy will be part of a gamma ray blast that will light up the rest of the universe. What better fate is that, really?
