so meaning is granted by individuals? I agree. However all of us have a varied definition of what value to place on that meaning. You are asserting that there is no meaning. I have meaning to my life, and while it's subjective, ephemeral and intangible, it is as real to me as Math is. So you're statement can't be true without qualification of "There is no objective meaning to life based in the tangible" which I would agree with.
1- self-sustaining biological organisms with the capability of rational thought instinctualy/consciously choose life over death.
2- When organisms in 1 choose consciously to live towards some end, by definition give purpose to life
3- The lowest common purpose arrived at would be to perpetuate the biological process.
4- The significance of sustaining biological process vaires by individual.
5- Life has purpose with variable subjective significance to organisms from 1
6- Life, by definition of meaning, has subjective meaning for individuals presented in 1
