Seems to me that without a higher purpose (note I did not say "a God"), life is meaningless. And if this is the case, that is downright depressing!!

The purpose of life is the purpose you give it. If your life is meaningless without a higher purpose, that is your problem. It is up to you to give your life meaning. Don’t wait for some outside imaginary entity to decide for you what meaning your life has. Decide for yourself what is important to you, then go do it.
The non-existence of a higher purpose (god) is not depressing. What is depressing is being a sheep and letting something else tell you what your life means. What is depressing is sitting around on your a$$ waiting for some imaginary friend to come and tell you what your life means or what your purpose is.
