Logically, one cannot chose nothing. Chosing can only be chosing something.

However there's wisdom in your words. Just "being" is possible. It's an essential aspect of Zen Buddhism for one, which I don't agree with, but a valid philosophical spiritual system at least from an intellectual aspect.

One can also just "be" in almost any spiritual system or ignore all spiritual systems and "be".

However if you discount that life exists after death, then you're proposing that you no longer "be" at that point, and so I believe that's flawed intellectually.
