This Dennett is getting a lot of press lately. Worth looking into, perhaps. And personally, if that means much anymore... I don't care what things turn out to be, as long as I don't die without learning the truth, and as long as I can find some happiness, whether devoid of "objective" meaning or not. Curiosity and the need for exploration drive me.
