There is no meaning of life. Not in the grand scheme of things people always seem to want anyway. Life appearing on this planet is nothing more than billions of tiny little variables being exactly right at the exact right time, a one in a gazillion freak accident.
As for the meaning of life on a smaller scale, like what is your own purpose in life... I guess that's up to individual people. Some want fame, some want riches, some are content sitting with their shotgun in front of their trailer drinking beer all day.
For me, since we are alive, I think it's our duty as the human race to explore the universe as much as we can and get to a point where we can't go extinct anymore (by settling multiple star systems and galaxies). Our solar system isn't going to be around forever. When the sun eventually burns out and takes us with it, it would be nice if we've spread out across the universe by then.
