Ultimately evolution is the why. From the time we are born to the time we die we have ups and downs, times of happiness and sadness, all to different degrees, based on a multitude of factors. Finding meaning is not magic or robotic and can only be what the individual wants for themselves. "Meaning" is the balance between finding happiness with reality and knowing oneself without projecting oneself on others.
