According to the some schools of thought in Hinduism, the purpose of life is the attainment of God. Indeed, this lends life its meaning.
The belief held by the proponents of this theory is that all life is, in some way, imperfect. God alone is perfect. In successive births, a person is considered to be either better or worse than what he was in his previous life, depending on his actions during that previous existence.
In part, this also explains karma. Better actions lead to a better future. Thus all organisms are subject to cycles of life and death, the purpose of each life being a step closer to the attainment of perfect, which will release the organism from this cycle, and grant immortality.
The meaning of life, therefore, is to provide the living object (man, plant, animal) with a chance to attain such perfection.

Just remember what Monty Python's said: Every sperm is sacred every sperm is great and if a sperm is wasted God gets quite irate :)))
Okay joke aside, the true secret of life is to life for the moment, if you live for the moment, you'll not look back in the past and with your current actions you'll build your future.
So, capture the moment

I believe the meaning of life is to live. We were born and we must die. Between our birth and our death we live. How we live and what we make of ourselves is our legacy. What kind of legacy do we want to leave behind is our own decision not destinies. We make choices everyday that impact the world around us. Inevitably we still must live with those decisions and go from there.

That depends on who you ask...Myself? I am a Christian and I beleive, Christians know the meaning of life..see below...
Meaning of Life? – This has been the ultimate question since the beginning of mankind. It seems inherent in our nature to ask questions such as “Where did we come from? How did I get here? What’s my purpose on earth? Where do I go when I die? What’s the meaning of all this?”
Meaning of Life? The Answer Without God
Meaning of Life? -- Through the teaching of evolutionary science, materialism and moral relativism in our popular media and public school system, we’ve removed God from the potential answers to these ultimate questions of life. Without God, we lose any transcendent purpose for the universe in which we live. Without God, we lose any transcendent purpose to give meaning to our individual lives. We are nothing more than bugs struggling with survival until we die. All the achievements, the sacrifices, the good and beautiful efforts of people, the ugly and dark acts of people, are ultimately futile things of life. Without God, we also lose any possibility for life after death. When you remove the hope of heaven, you remove the ultimate value and purpose of life. What difference would it really make whether we lived like a Billy Graham or an Osama Bin Laden? Everyone's fate would be the same anyway. This is the hopeless outlook of those who base their belief system on materialism, naturalism and the presupposition that life on earth is all there is.
Meaning of Life? The Answer With God
Meaning of Life? -- The answer to this question cannot come from human intelligence or reason, but only from the Creator himself who transcends our material world. As we see in today’s naturalistic society, once we remove God from the equation, we start to lose all sense of purpose for mankind. But, if God exists, we really do have a transcendent purpose, and really do have meaning for our lives. Not only do we find day-to-day significance in our lives, but an ultimate significance through our hope in eternal life. If God exists, we remove the moral relativism that pervades today’s society, and we replace it with a standard of absolute right and wrong residing in the character of God Himself. This gives our day-to-day choices significance too. God gave us the ability to choose whether we live by His moral laws or by whatever values we assign to ourselves through our own reason. As we find, we are not mere robots placed on this earth by God. Rather, we have absolute free will to follow what He says or not. We can either recognize God as the Creator of the universe, or we can deny that He exists. We can choose to live a meaningless life or a life with absolute and eternal purpose.

Smell the roses, 'cause no one is getting out alive; do what you can to make the day a little better for the people around you; Plan, but don't obsess

i dont think there is a meaning of life. we are born, we live, and then we die just like every other animal. the only purpose we have right now is destroying our planet for our own benefit
