    What 'meaning' should life have then? There is no universal 'meaning' of life, just set goals and try to get there, make your own meaning.

    This.

    One imposes his or her own meaning in life. Decide yours and go for it! You're also free to change or modify it when you will.

    You eat food because you're hungry and it tastes good. If it doesn't you try and make it taste good. Same with life. Would you ask "what is the meaning of food"? Or say "there is but one serious culinary problem, and that is whether to eat"? Of course not.

    You don't really have to determine your own either. That makes it sound like a huge task but you aren't working from scratch. Plenty of people have had plenty of ideas on that front, go and read them (or watch them).
