Is there a meaning of life?

Ever tried to fall asleep when you are still trying to process your thoughts? Doesn't work does it, the two are incompatible. The only way to fall asleep is to let it happen naturally, to not get in the way.

Similarly, with life. There is no thought you can apply to life in order to give it some grand universal meaning, because you will always know that your choice to do so was arbitrary. Therefore a universal meaning of life cannot come through thoughts. But if you get out of the way you may find a different answer. Seeking a meaning is what keeps you from finding it.
