I know its cynical of me, but whenever I see people talking like this, all I can think is how craven and cowardly they are. The desire for some overarching sense of meaning is motivated by, in my experience, simple fear. Fear and a lack of faith in one's character (which is another kind of fear: what might I do if I didn't have a framework taking control away from me?) There isn't any final meaning we can pin down, and even if there were such a thing, we pretty clearly are incapable of figuring it out. There is lots of stuff we'll never understand, both personally and as a species. True wisdom is, in my opinion, transcending the discomfort associated with not knowing.
