Well, technically nothing can be created or destroyed. You may be interested in reading some books by Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh. He talks about exactly this. He says that we cannot be created or destroyed: we are the clouds, we are the sun, the rivers, the minerals, plants, animals, toil, blood, etc. We are everything. We cannot truly die or be born but only change form. Therefore we should not be afraid of death.
And I remember now which book he talks about this in: "No Death, No Fear."
