was it an "accident" - yes if you mean a spontaneous natural occurrence, of course. this is far more likely than being meticulously planned by some kind of massively powerful being that purposefully created it in order to create a specific life form on one specific planet so much later they could pay an unhealthy interest in whether that lifeform has still got a foreskin or eats fish on a Friday?
is life essentially meaningless? yes - in so far as there is no greater external framework giving it a preordained meaning . we are not in a computer game where we have to fulfill a set of requirements to reach level 2. Any meaning that you happen to find in your life, is cultivated by yourself alone not some greater power.
