Sure, Biggie. I believe life has meaning and that meaning is contemplating on God and incorporating God into our daily thinking in a moment to moment way.
We are here for a reason unknown to us, but I am not a believer in fate or destiny. We don't have special tasks or mission, I don't think... I just believe we should do good as the reason for being here. I'm sure my values coincide with others.

According to some, the reason we are here is to pass on our genes. Nothing more, nothing less. However I disagree - indeed, I think that theory is a quite unnecessary attempt by some evolutionists to instil a "meaning of life".
The creation of life was an act of nature (ie an accident), so no, there's no reason. We just are. Live with it. Be amazed by it. Complex multicellular life is indeed a miracle - but a miracle of nature.

Yes I do believe that life has meaning, because all life is a precious gift from God and not to be wasted. And we are here for a reason, to live life to the fullest trying to be the best that we can, and to prepare our selves for the kingdom of God.

From your question, you probably understand that meaning and reason go together.
We have meaning when we live for a real purpose (reason).
“Unless you assume a God, the question of life’s purpose is meaningless.” –Bertrand Russell (Nobel Laureate, mathematician and philosopher)
So if I accept that God might exist, I have reason to think that we're here on earth to accomplish a purpose. If I reject God, I also reject purpose and meaning.
If I accept that God exists, then I reason that He must have put our great need for meaning and purpose into our human nature to point us to seek Him. Therefore, seeking God and finding God is our purpose.
If I reject God then I have to invent something to do that makes me feel good about myself and/or makes me forget about a meaningless existence.

Yeah I think so. I think you can also decide why you're here. I believe I am here to help people and find happiness. What do you think?
