Nice try, but it's actually colourless. Given that it's just atmosphere.
The reason that we see it as blue (or red etc depending on the time of day) is due to light refraction and the angle of incidence to the sun (when the sun is "lower" in the sky, the sky appears red/orange, when it's higher, it appears blue).
Tyndall effect in progress.
Back to the topic... well, your belief is essentially that of re-incarnation. I personally believe that when time is up, there's nothing. The conscious (and sub-conscious) part of the mind doesn't survive the process of dying, and obviously the body doesn't either.
Essentially, we're either burned & released into the atmosphere after being broken down into carbon etc, or we're burried & eaten by worms.
Either way, I'm not afraid of dying either, and to a certain extent, any pain associated with it isn't a problem. The problem for me is whether the people around me will be prepared for it when it happens.
