When I die, my body just dies, rots, decays.
My mind? Soul? Consciousness? I mean, yeah, you want to get metaphysical enough I'm sure you could make up an argument that something has to happen to those. I'd kinda like it if I could go to a heaven.... but I don't see any kind of afterlife actually existing. IMO, my mind is just a result of chemical reactions in my nervous system. If that nervous system is destroyed to the point that it cannot create those chemical reactions anymore, my mind no longer exists.
