I don't see the logical conclusion from your premise. Unless you are assuming that everything in existence has always existed (even you) but perhaps in a different form or state (Pantheism)? Just because one thing can be something does not mean everything can also be that. Everything physical no matter how you slice it can only explain its existence outside itself.
We are not made happy by what we acquire but by what we appreciate.
