Your life means precisely what you do with it--no more, no less. The works you leave behind, the acts you perform whether or not you receive recognition for them, are your monument. It makes little difference why you did what you did. In the end it matters only that you did it.
Some people serve as links in a biological chain by transmitting life from one generation to the next. Some uphold tradition and values. Some inspire; others follow and validate their teacher. So meaning can come from giving life, sustaining life, creating wisdom, or accepting a teaching.
Each person is a part of life. Each life is a world of its own.
The world of which you are the center is held together by your perceptions, your needs, your values, and, ultimately your feelings. Your feelings center you and organize a world around you. Your feelings are the expression of your life energy. If you have great skill in expressing yourself, you can change the larger world. Consider the lives of the great artists, inventors, thinkers. Their personal struggle found expression in their art, and their art in turn shaped the world that came after them. Except for nature, everything you see around you is the creation of some person expressing themself. Altogether, these creative expressions are our world. The good and the bad are all our own doing. We take our inner struggles, resolve them creatively or destructively, and share the results. Those are the dynamics of life.
If you are a witness to your own truth and share it. If you help another person discover themself. If you relive suffering. If you give people diversion from their toil so that they are refreshed in their efforts. If you survive to tell your story. If you survive to tell someone else's story. If you are a performer. If you are a member of the audience.
The meaning of your life is in sharing your unique point of view. The life that is not shared might as well not be lived.
