Life has meaning. Lots of meaning! And our purpose is to experience as much of the many meanings of life as we can. We experience stress with events when we don't feel free to explore the meaning. So connect with life and find nuggets of insight.
For example,trees touch me deeply, and I'm always finding something very meaningful when I'm around them. The same with animals: they have a way of touching deep into our souls.
So, find meaning! Enjoy life.
