It's just an effect of the chemicals and processes involved
It is, but isn't it much more than that at the same time?

The meaning of life is to transcend one's own natural delusion. As a consequence, most people's lives have no meaning. Few people ever get to the point of confronting their own delusion, let alone embracing or transcending it.
Transcendental insanity is embracing the absurdity of reality and finding more from it or abandoning it, or whatever. I don't know. I'm just an internet crazy person.

As cheesy as it sounds, it's only as meaningful as you make it to be. I don't believe in a greater purpose. I have a few dreams that are worth chasing. I will chase them, and I will spend time with my loved ones and enjoy my life while it lasts. We happen to have emotions, might as well experience them as much as we can before we no longer can.

There is no intrinsic meaning, that's the point; you make your own meaning.

Thanks a lot, it is just what I have learned in my few short years on this planet.

I totally agree, that is why I think it better that we create our own meaning and thus define our own lives.
