Purpose and Meaning for an Atheist

 The needs of my society provide all the meaning and purpose I need to get out of bed each day. There are always "urgencies" to attend to. 

 I don’t believe in souls any more than Gods. I meet my departed loved ones each time I think of something they taught me or when they were kind to me, or just had a good time with me. 

 When I die to, paraphrase John Dobbs, I leave my loved ones this valuable and useful space which I have occupied temporarily, and a legacy of urgencies.
