The meaning of life........
Ask that question again by the time you reach old age. The substance of your answer to your question depends how you live your life. It could be very meaningful or it could just be all about Alpha-Bits, Cheerios and Frosted Flakes.
You got to hop more grasshopper!

The meaning of Life is to screw Cheerios, so eat your Wheaties first to prevent corn flaking.

Why are we here? People have long wondered about the meaning of life on earth. They have looked at the star-filled sky. They have admired a colorfulsunset and the beauty of the countryside. Thinking persons have reasoned that there must be some grand purpose to all these things. But often they have wondered where they fit in.(Psalm8:3,4)
At some time in life most people ask:Are we just to live a short time, get what we can out of life, and then die? Where are we really going? Is there more that we can expect than the brief cycle of birth, life and death? What will help us understand this matter is the answer to the question How did we get here? EVOLUTION OR CREATION?
In some places it is commonly taught that everything we see just happened by itself, that it came about by chance or accident. Over many millions of years, it is said life evolved, or developed from lower forms until finaly humans came into existance. In many parts of the earth this theory of evolution is taught as fact. But is it true that we came from an apelike beast that lived millions of years ago? Did this great universe just come about by accident?
The Bible says: "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth."(Genesis1:1) And the facts of science agree that the heavens with their billions of stars, and our earth had a beginning. They were created. The movements of the stars and the planetsare so regular that even years in advance their position can be determined even years in advance with perfect accuracy. The stars and planets move in the universe according to the laws and principles of mathematics. A professor of mathematics from the University of Cambridge, PDirac, said, in the magazine Scientific American: "One could perhaps describe the situation by saying that God is a mathematician of very high order, and He used very advanced mathematics in constructing the universe."
The Bible states: "Know that Jehovah is God. It is he that has made us, and not we ourselves."(Psalm100:3) Our human body shows such wonderful design that one Bible writer was moved to say to God: "I shal laud you because in a fearinspiring way I am wonderfully made...My bones were not hidden from you when I was made in secret....Your eyes saw even the embryo of me, and all its parts were down in writing." (Psalm139:14-16) Ababy developsinside its mother in a wonderful way. Newsweek magazine said this : "It is quite simply a miracle." Then it added: "No technique can pinpoint the momentous time of conception. No scientist can tell what wonderous forces then take over to develop the organs and myriad of nerve network of a human embryo."
Think about our great universe,, as well as our own body with its wonderful construction and design. Sound reasoning should tell us that these things did not simply evolve or come by themselves. They had to have a Designer, a Creator. Consider other things that we see around us. When you are in your house ask yourself: Did my desk, lamp,bed, chair,table, walls, or even the house itself, evolve? ''or did they need a maker? Of course intelligent persons had to make them! In what way, then, can it be claimed that our much more complex universe and we ourselves did not require a maker? And if God put us here he surely had a reason for doing so.
It was not God's purpose for Adam and Eve to die after a while and live somewhere else. They were to stay here and take care of the earth and all its living things. As the Bible says 'God blessed them and said to them: be fruitful and become many and fill the earth and subdue it, and have in subjection the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and every living creature that is moving upon the earth.' (Genesis1:28;2:15) Adam and Eve, as well as all the children they would have, could have been happy on earth forever doing the thingsthat God wanted them to do.
Notice that "God blessed them." He really cared about his earthly children. So as a loving Father he gave them instructions that were for their good. They would have found happiness in obeying those instructions. Jesus knew this and so later said:"Happy are those hearing the word of God and keeping it!"(Luke11:28) Jesus kept Gods word. "I always do the things pleasing to him,"he said(John8:29) This is the key to the very reason we are here. It is to have full, happy lives by living in harmony withGod's will. It will give real meaning to our lives now, to serve Jehovah. And by doing so we will be putting ourselves in line to live forever in Paradise earth.(Psalm37:11,29)

Attribution. Because humans attribute meaning to life, and just about everything else. And different people can attribute different meanings to life. ^_~

try webster.com. j/k. for me, life is a grand experience. like a game. we all play different games we created for ourselves. the object is not to win, nor to lose, but to play it. you win when you play it, you lose when you say "i give up playing" - at that point, you're dead and you reset the game and do it all over again.
