I don't care for legacy as I believe the whole of existence is something that just is - for no real reason at all. So there's no reason for me to leave an impact on a race that will ultimately go extinct like every other while the universe trudges on without batting an eye. For the same reason, I don't believe there is a solid meaning to life at all. Nor do I think there needs to be.
That said, my personal meaning of life is utilitarian. I want to pursue and engage in activities that make me happy, and ensure that those around me, those in my life whom I care about, are just as happy as I am. That's all I really care about.
