The meaning of life is progress. When we were born we'll learn how to talk and walk. Then we'll go to school. We'd hope to get good result then progress to high school. After that is university and then we'll hope to get a good job. Then we'll save enough money and get married. Have some children. Retire, play with grandchildren, and in the end you die. The meaning of life is progress because you'll always be looking forward to something. After finishing one thing, you have a lot more to worry about and finish and it's never ending. You will truly get a rest when your life has ended, when you rest in peace. The opposite of the eternal rest is life and therefore that is the meaning; Progress.

From the other answers I saw, only one got it.
The meaning of life is to be happy.
Look at all life and you can see it is trying to be happy.
Think of every decision you've ever made, and this is the basis behind your choices.

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. -

One which you lived life to the fullest and have no regrets.
Nah.
To me it means going to school, finding a job, getting married, having kids and passing on...

Simply put, it is to know and worship God. We are living on earth in order to grow spiritually and come nearer unto God.
We are also here to carry forward an ever-advancing civilization.
