If you don't believe in an afterlife, you'll be nowhere when you die. You won't be in space, you won't be observing what's happening on earth, you'll have no thoughts. You'll have gone from something that completely did not exist before you were conceived, to something that completely does not exist after you die.
This mind-blowing thought of complete nonexistence after death is the reason many people believe in a religion. Because many religions teach that we'll live in one life form or another after we die.
Not true. You go back to being just basic matter again. You have existed before and after.
