I'm not religious in the least, have never been married, have no children...and yet my life has meaning to me.
Go figure.

I get that. However, the only meaning your life has is the meaning you give it. Eventually that comes up short. Ultimately there is an awakening similar to that scene in “The Jerk”, where the guys suddenly realize they are just waiting around for an oven mitt, and the driver says, “You wanna wait around for an oven mitt?” and they try to leave.
Without a relationship with our creator, so much of life is the equivalent of “waiting around for an oven mitt.” It just takes a while to realize it.
As Paul said, if there is no resurrection we might as well eat and drink for tomorrow we die.

I live for my German Shepherds. Those are my babies.
What matters in this world is that you have love in your life, because from love springs happiness.

And what will you say when you go before the White Throne of Judgement? Don’t take the Mark.
