Do you want life to make sense or have meaning?

The French word "sens" usually needs to be translated in texts I get to deal with as "meaning", and I translate "faire du sens" often as "to have meaning" although the translation forums don't all agree with me!. Anyway I was pondering this in a translation today, then on the bus home I got to wonder about what it was I wanted - do I want life to make sense or have meaning? Of course in the end, as a not always very convincing or convinced professional Christian I do choose meaning, but I am still left wishing that life could ocasionally make a bit more sense...
