Is it any "Wonder" that I can wax poetic on such a topic?

Well, everything that I was going to post was overwhelmed by the utter unpleasantness of that pun. Now I long for death.

Smith/Oracle:
Why, Mr. Anderson, why? Why, why do you do it? Why, why get up? Why keep fighting?
Do you believe you're fighting for something, for more than your survival? Can you tell me what it is, do you even know?
Is it freedom or truth, perhaps peace - could it be for love?
Illusions, Mr. Anderson, vagaries of perception. Temporary constructs of a feeble human intellect trying desperately to justify an existence that is without meaning or purpose. And all of them as artificial as the Matrix itself. Although, only a human mind could invent something as insipid as love.
You must be able to see it, Mr. Anderson, you must know it by now! You can't win, it's pointless to keep fighting! Why, Mr. Anderson, why, why do you persist?
Neo: Because I choose to.

Smith/Oracle: This is my world! My world!
{Neo is knocked back against the crater wall and is lying on the ground}
Smith/Oracle: Wait... I've seen this. This is it, this is the end.
Yes, you were laying right there, just like that, and I... I... I stand here, right here, I'm... I'm supposed to say something.
I say... Everything that has a beginning has an end, Neo.
{Neo begins to get up again}
Smith/Oracle: What? What did I just say?
No... No, this isn't right, this can't be right. Get away from me!
Neo: What are you afraid of?
Smith/Oracle: It's a trick!
Neo: You were right, Smith. You were always right. It was inevitable.
{Smith/Oracle imprints over Neo}
Smith/Oracle: Is it over?
{Smith/Neo nods. Deus Ex Machina in 01 realizes what Neo has done and surges electricity through his body}
Smith/Oracle: Oh, no, no, no. No, it's not fair.

I live because I don't have a meaning. Without meaning, I cannot die, because I never was alive in the first place. My purpose in life is to find the purpose of my life.

I don't think there is a technical difference. And if there is, then most people don't know it anyway and thus use the two interchangably.What is the difference between purpose of life and meaning of life?

most of the time,life is pretty neutral. sometimes, its fun or horny.
but even if life is neutral mostly, its still beats than being dead and not existing.

Indeed. Which is the reason we want to keep on living, so there will be a point to find.As I've posted at the Religion forum, if your life ends at your death,
and that's it, then all this life is pointless
