@danjoz Can I offer a mind experiment? Imagine some uninhabited planet in a corner of the universe. Look at it empty rocky surface, decorated by craters. This planet is so far from anyone, so no one will discover it. If no one know about it, is it exists? Yes it is, because you're looking at it right know in your mind. Things are existing while something or someone observes it. With a high degree of probability, we can say that Earth and Mars appeared before any known life form. So there was no life, but there was something or someone who was watching/dreaming/thinking on our solar system and universe.
Summarizing, I change your question. Whats the meaning of a little rock stone, that lies at the edge of the road?
We are thinking in so narrow way. Even rereading what I wrote here, I am finding it too narrow.
