The meaning of life is well, basically, and very simply, HAPPINESS! Power? Money? Family? Sex? Love? (Recreational drugs?, Jk) Service to others? What else can it be? We find a reason to live, something that makes us happy =).

It differs from one person to another.
I think it should start with finding your identity, or who you truly are inside, then figure out the things that are most important to you. That would be the underlying meaning to your life.
For me, it is knowledge. I am drawn to history, philosophy and fiction of all kinds, regardless of others' thoughts on any particular part of what I want to know. I believe that if I manage to extract as much as a single word of wisdom, even from the socially rejected materials, then I can add it to what I previously know and become a better person.

The smartass answer for is to essentially live your life.
You don't settle for compromises, you make your terms and you meet them. What defines how "right" you are in pursuing them is an entirely different philosophical discussion. But finding meaning is being content with the meaning and context you create for yourself.
