Not to nitpick, but I'm pretty sure most Humans don't sit around and come to the conclusion that "I'm so awesome, I ought to have dozens of emotional states and spend a lot of time imagining things, all of which is completely counterproductive to the purpose of the species, just because I'm better than the rest of the universe!".

By the way, life has no 'meaning' per se, but the closest one can get to a 'purpose' is probably just to enjoy it as much as you can without treading on other's toes (Because it just makes sense not to; the greatest number of people can get the largest amount of enjoyment.). Whatever happens afterwards, if anything? Eh, I'll find that out when we're done.
