The Meaning, Purpose, and Value of Life

Nothing has intrinsic meaning, purpose, or value (is this supposed to be a substantive thesis?). Sounds nihilistic, but it's not. Meaning, purpose, and value are relational terms; x is meaningful to y, x's purpose is to y, x values y, etc. Now, in regard to one's own life, it is up to the individual to give meaning, purpose, and value to it. And that can be hard work, so I guess laziness about one's own life equates to a nihilistic attitude. It's your life, so make something of it.
