Welcome Little A!
Once you've fully let go of the indoctrination, you'll really see how great life is when you are able to live it without a tether.
Yep, when you die, it's all over. And there is no one there at all times to make sure you're doing everything you're supposed to. But you have one shot at this life. You have one chance to enjoy what you have, the people you love, the things you love to do.
Step back and think about it a little bit. Do you want to do shitty things when you are alone? Is the only reason to be a good person because there might be something watching over you? Or is life just better and more enjoyable when you are proud of your actions and the way you treat people? Is acting rightly the way you become successful in a social structure? On the face of it, if the only reason a person is moral is because they fear god, then they really aren't moral are they? Not truly, if you ask me.
If you are truly ready to give up the ghost, then you'll find that the more you read and learn, the more ridiculous all that god stuff really is.

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
