Space does not have a color of its own. It is the medium through which we see color. It is transparent to color, for otherwise we would see nothing but that color, and be color-blind.
Likewise, existence does not have a meaning of its own. It is medium though which we experience meaning. Existence is transparent to meaning, for otherwise we would experience nothing but that meaning, and be meaning-blind.
Life is more like air than like space. Air has a _slight_ tint of blue, due to Raleigh scattering; if you look through kilometers of air towards a distant mountain, then you'll see it tinted blue. Likewise, life has a _little_ bit of meaning, experienced if you live long enough. That meaning, too, is blue.
