Meaning? Meaning exists for every individual you give a life to. My meaning in life is to be happy and make others happy. Other's might be different. You're asking for logical meaning and that's just stupid as logic hasn't any meaning. Logic is useless without emotion to guide it.

That's like saying, what meaning is there in taking out the trash?
-Because it's smelly!
No.. logical meaning. REAL meaning.

What the hell? That makes no sense. It's not logical to do anything. We do things based on emotion and we USE logic to make sure our expectations meet reality.

So the only "meaning" we canpossibly find in life while being honest with ourselves is impossibly temporary pleasure? That sounds about as pointless as it gets.

"What humans do effects humans".

Can you invalidate this single statement? If not, then perhaps you can see why most humans are concerned with what other humans are doing.

Wasn't it George Carlin that joked about the ultimate purpose of mankind was to produce Earth's 'plastic layer'? There you go: something geological meaningful.

Considering a billion miles, does an inch still have any length? No matter what you compare the inch with, it is still an inch. So if I make a footprint that carries meaning for 5 days till it rains, then it still carries 5 days of meaningfulness no matter what amount of time I compare it with.
