Life – it has a meaning and loving purpose - you just have to find your purpose and live it.
I believe every person is here for a definite purpose. Each person is special and valuable; that refers to me, you, your family, friends, in fact everybody! There is a loving plan for each of our lives here on earth and there is no such thing as coincidence. I don't believe that anything in life happens by chance and that every aspect of our lives points to something deeper.
You need to decide now to live for God rather than for yourself. You spend your life on Earth preparing yourself (as best you can) for death. I don't see death as a scary, negative experience, but birth into a bliss filled eternal life with God. I believe that this is something you have to consciously choose or not during your life on earth.
The meaning of life is for us to discover that we are true children of an infinitely loving and merciful God, to find out what our responsibilities are to our Creator, and to fulfill those responsibilities. Each of us is called to affirm, accept and develop the talents God has given us. -

To dedicate ourselves to something *other* and *higher* than ourselves|
If we pursue happiness and fulfillment as direct goals of our lives, they always elude us.
But if we are self-forgetful in the right way, and attend to what is important and good *in itself,* then happiness finds us|
The greatest virtue in existence is *love.*
Love defined here, is willing the good, the happiness, and the well-being of the other person for that person's sake and not simply as a means for your own gain.
The cardinal philosophical error made today is that self-fulfillment should be *the* goal of life, and all other people and things are but means to that|
This is the *precise* explanation as to why people are so frustrated and unhappy today|
Happiness is not found that way|
Even in romantic relationships, the cardinal error is made that one's partner is a mere *means* to get what you want in life.
However, for romance to bring true happiness, one must love the *other* for the other's sake, putting the other first - attending to the details of what will make him or her happy|
When one does this, one finds true happiness in the relationship - and in no other way|

we draw our own meanings in our lifetime. all this is determined by experiences and individual understanding of the life events.
whatever meaning i give now is based on very little experience in this life. the meaning i have is in the form of a person i fell in love with. she is the meaning of my life.
i know, you were expecting another more profound answer. so please excuse me.

this is my favorite question.
I have been thinking this from my childhood and i think i have made a conclusion for it now.
that,,"life has no conclusion really.What ever we see is all relative terms.And whatever,exists does exists bcos of something else that exists for its cause.But finally u can classify out five thing which always existed and will exist forver infinitely(time is not one of them,as there is no existance of time as it is a relative term).
This clue i got from Anekant theory of jainism and DAMARTANTRA too.
But this certainly doesnt means that there is no conclusion at all.
Among those five basic existances,two are those which are called DHARMASTICAYA AND ADHARMASTIKAYA which we can assume in our perspective goodness and badness of ourselves/thoughts/doings.
So meaning is that u contribute to universe when u do the right/honest things according to what ur mind says(and yes ur mind always know what is the right path,as one among those five basic existances is ur soul that governs ur brain.
five fundamental existances are
JEEVASTIKAYA(SOUL) , PUDGALASTIKAYA(THE MATTER),AAKASHASTIKAYA(SPACE),DHARMASTIKAYA(ITS NOT CLEAR TO ME) ,ADHARMASTIKAYA(ITS NOT CLEAR TOO)
