Is it even possible for us not to exist?

I'm not sure yet why this particular concept came forward for me, but as I thought about it I realized I could not even imagine nonexistence, not being in some form. As I explored this idea more, it took on almost a twilight zone feel.
Most of us have no memory how we came to be, yet here we are. We all will face a transformation called death that will separate us from te only "form" most of us also can remember. Yet, I find it almost impossible to conceive of not existing in some aspect.
So, is nonexistence after existence possible? What survives the transition called death and what does not? Please elaborate. Thank you for answering. Many Blessings!

I think we are already in a point of non-existence and existence. I have a theory that 0 equals infinity, and so how the expansion of the universe represents infinity, we are already nothing.
0 = 1 and -1, they are seperate things, but together they are still nothing....

We cannot imagine non-existence for the simple fact that we exist. We think and reason and our mind cannot perceive it's disappearance, most probably out of self-preservation. So no matter how hard you try, you'll only find yourself over and over again in that "twilight" state of mind every time you think of non-existence.
