In a physical sense, yes, something can cease to exist if all its constituent parts are broken down or destroyed. In a philosophical or abstract sense, some may argue that the essence or impact of something can persist even after it no longer physically exists.

Are you to cease to exist?

When my biological functions cease, and my brain is no longer able to generate my mind, it will cease to exist. My body will decay slowly, or burn fast, but in any case be reduced to its constituent compounds which may find their way back into the cycle of life. A few decennia afterwards, few will even remember my name. A few more, and it will be as if I had never existed. In about a billion years, the Earth will die, and all evidence that life has existed erased by the relentless geological processes working on it. A few billion years later, the Sun itself will die, and even any evidence that a habitable planet ever existed is lost. Ultimately, all stars will be but a distant memory of the hot, young glory of the universe, now dark and empty, and expanding into an eventless eternity. So yes, I will cease to exist.


What evidence do you need to prove that i exist?

To prove your existence, evidence such as personal identification documents, biometric data, or witnesses who can testify to interacting with you in person would be necessary. Digital footprint, such as social media accounts or official records, can also demonstrate your existence.
