From an existential point of view man creates his own meaning. This is not hard to understand; of course, the external world has no intrinsic meaning to it. It is up to us to create meaning.

The cure for hunger is food. The cure for lust is sex. The cure for loneliness is company. The cure for meaning is God.

Presuming there is no external meaning is silly. Why would an animal evolve so needing meaning if there was no such thing?
