If you're religious and you believe there is a God or spiritual entities out there who gives you a mission to do in life, then I guess that can be the meaning of your life, is to follow these goals that are given by your religion.

If you don't have any metaphysical explanation, the fact is these feelings that we want something objective to give sense of, to give a meaning to our life. It's just a feeling because, you know, the only thing that we have is our subjective experience. And so I think that there is nothing out there.
