Theory of life

What is the meaning of life?

Such a question is very difficult to answer but there may be a way of looking at it which could determine a possible reason to life. The short answer is to live happily. But here is how I look at it:

By Darwin's theory, evolution is what has made us what we are today. So by that logic the point of life is to have kids and make sure they are able to have kids.

The other point of life is happiness. Is life really worth living without being happy?

The cool thing is that these two views can actually tie into a whole possible purpose. The common human wishes to one day have children and be able to take care of them. That is what will bring him/her happiness. And in that sense those who are happy will also be those who are fit.

But what about those that do not find happiness from having children? Since they have the "wrong" definition of happiness, natural selection will play against them, and they will pretty much be weeded out of existence (in terms of genes of course).
