Finding meaning in your life without god

Interesting problem. People that have a belief in God or even a continued existence after death can find purpose to their lives, owing to the fact that their accomplishments might be useful to them after they die. But a person that believes that death brings obliteration has a difficult time finding meaning to their life.

To the Atheists, Agnostics, and Existentialists out there:

How do you guys overcome the absurdity that is life? Where do you find your meaning?

To the God-fearing members of the board:

Have you ever had doubts about continuing after death? Any fear that when you die, you might just end everything right there?
