This is probably going to sound depressing to a lot of folks, but oh well.
Objectively, life has no meaning whatsoever. The inevitable goal of all life is to die while struggling against the same. The only reason we continue to attempt to live is because we are 'programmed' with an instinct to survive.
I've known a number of people who have died. Some young, some old. When they die, the world moves on. When I die, the world will move on. Same with you. Some people can create things that outlast their lives, but even these creations aren't everlasting.
It's not my intention to depress people. It's only depressing if you view it negatively.
That is what I consider an objective answer. To move beyond that into subjective terms, really, the meaning of YOUR life is what you choose for it to be. That's the best way to achieve a sense that your life has some meaning, if you require such a thing.

Do good to others to be appreciated, develop the world for the future generation.
I used to think there is no purpose of life, but we all have to live togetehr and work together; as human beings to make life better.
Humans shoudl try to enjoy life in many different ways.After all we all have different duties, yes the world migth move on if you die. However, if you do soemthing good, you will be remembered a thousand of years later. E.g. Einstein he discovered physic formulas and now our generation still uses his greatful knowledge.

what is the meaning of life, there are several different answers but the menaing of life to me is to live everyday like it was your last. Also to live life without "what ifs" and without regret.

Life "IS" the meaning! Be-ing-ness, that supports the "story" of Being...
Peace and Blessings....
