I have a few ideas:
My opinion is that life is just a thought experiment for a single consciousness to experience itself and to know itself better. So life is to satiate our own collective curiosity about who "we" are and to better understand our own psyche.
I feel there are no inherent rules to life, so it really is what you make of it. Like others have said, you designate meaning to your life, or you don't, it is all up to you.
To progress; where or for what reason, I am not sure, change and progression just seems to be one of a few constants in life. My own theory is that we are supposed to remember that we are all products of our own consciousness (some call it the Big Bang) and that the material world is illusory and a theater production we all have a role in whether consciously or unconsciously.

I just saw a video of the mechanisms within a cell from a youtube video linked in a comment from this site.
It made me think.
What is the meaning of life? Movement. Improvement. Evolution. To use this engine, this body, to improve and contribute to the growth of the collective of engines that it is a member of. If possible, to leave a new and improved copy of this body to keep the collective called humanity moving, improving, evolving.
I am so high...

To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of the womens.
Wait, wait... that what's best. I haven't seen a Schwarzenegger movie that spells that one out yet.

Make something up for yourself.
