If there's no god what's the point in living? 
I usually hate quoting myself but as it is 4 am and I have answered this question so many times. I'm just going to reiterate something I said once to someone else.
My life only has meaning for me and I am okay with that. To assume that your life needs to have some sort of meaning or that you're so important that you need some big purpose that affects your whole world seems stupid and arrogant. What do we give? What do we have to offer? Nothing. We aren't like the sun or the plants we don't have some special purpose that helps keep the world spinning. We're just here. We can give ourselves and each other purpose and that's about it. Learn to be okay with that. Life can be so beautiful, don't waste it living only for what's to come in the next life because this is all you get.
