From a secular point of view, you would be very right. Life becomes rather meaningless.

But if you are open to the idea that there is meaning, and someone put us here for a reason, then you can start searching for it.

Life being just a fantasy-based prelude to something not coming is what would make it actually meaningless.

Embracing it and enjoying it while you have it is the only meaning not concocted wholly out of nothing.

Come dancing

But WHY do you think that so many people are desperate to fabricate some kind of meaning out of whole cloth? If life itself is enough of a 'blast' without having to concoct some sort of bizarre narcissistic fantasy regarding the ultimate significance of their existence, then why do the lives of the majority of the world's population revolve around these myths? It's not as if people don't have access to the education required to dispassionately reject these myths...but it seems that people feel that they need them.
