I don't think there is a meaning, life is what you make it.
It's your choice, I do not believe that it's predetermined.

I think the purpose of life is to achieve what's know best, get respected and have a family. Religiously, the purpose of your own life is a test. If you pass it, you enter Heaven, if you fail you enter Hell.

I'll say I don't currently know, but it's certainly not going to be a straightforward answer. I think a large part of the 'meaning of life' has to do with the concept of death and existence and the human state.
I'll get back to you when I know.
I said the meaning of life is what each and every person decides it to be, on the other hand.... Life exists for the purpose of death, as it is balance.

My point of view is that everything exists so that another counterpart to it can exsst.

What's the counterpart of a human? Besides a zombie.
What about paper?

Human
Counterpart; Undead ( Myth ) / Corpse ( Reality )
Paper
Counterpart; Steel / Fire
Both of these are opinion based and based on how people see it, it can have many other meanings.

I think you need to be looking deeper than worldly objects and their counterparts. If life exists so death can exist, what does this mean? This correlation makes the question twice as interesting.

I can just think of many things that don't have a counterpart. You're right about a lot of things having one. But, I wouldn't say EVERYTHING.
