What is the meaning of life?
And by this I mean to ask the meaning of YOUR life. What have you done or what do you feel has given you life meaning?

Ya, just reach right out there and ask. The Privacy Policy does not apply. Oh, hell, why not. The soap box needs to be recycled and if offered I'm not sure if it is the best for me to decline. Have you ever heard of a politician to turn away a chance to be heard? Am I skirting the question? Gee
Well, (and that is a deep Question) the meaning of life is to be born or come to be, eat, make waste and sleep. Survival to meet my peers and with luck graduate into adulthood. Work my butt off to make a living that at the time was not worth a damn. I grew up during the Viet Nam Era and life was different and will never be repeated. I have cheated death many times and saved others from their fate. Now I have a mission, I have discovered God and the meaning of Religion. Religion has everything to with God; yet God has nothing to do with Religion. Inventions of man have come from a need and as the World turns and grows with the passage of time, Man too, matures in thought and deed. Such is the meaning of Life.

No one can give their life meaning. We can give ourselves a feeling of meaning.
EDIT
What does it mean that I'm alive? That question cannot be asked of any mindless natural process such as evolution. So if we reject God, the question about meaning becomes meaningless.
But our human nature demands that our lives have meaning and if we reject God, we have invent something to do in life that gives us a feeling of having some reason for being on earth. We usually invent something that makes us feel good and then deceive ourselves into thinking that our invention is why we are on this earth.
