If there is no God, or something behind our existance, I don't understand how anything holds any meaning.

I'll explain:

Lets say you live your life to serve others, okay? Well, you make other people feel good.
Why is this important?
Well, your fellow humans are better off.
Why is this important?
Um... they feel good, duh
Yea, but why is this important?
We like to be happy?
Why?
It feels good.
Why?
Well thats how our brains evolved?
So?
Wow Grant, you're so amazing!

You might as well have made some prebiotic soup feel "happier".

I'm having trouble making my point, lol

You and I might as well be some green slime sitting in a puddle right now. The only thing that makes us anything else is just a fart load of chance events compiling.

Did that make any sense?

If you ask "why" enough, our actions don't really mean anything.
