Question:

Is this well written sonnet for my English assignment?

The Meaning of Life
The meaning of life is to follow your dreams
To never give up
And have high self esteem
To live to rejoice every single sunup
The meaning of life is to not allow yourself to be pushed around
To live your own life for yourself and not for anyone else
To live as if you are free and not homebound
To hear the music of the bells
The meaning of life is to savor every moment
And regret nothing you do
To make every moment brilliant
To live with much virtue
So live your life with joy and laughter
And never expect one single person to have every single answer.

Very good. One thing, that struck me, and I am sure this is a stylistic choice, is the beginning of almost every line with "To." It's a little redundant. However, I wouldn't change anything and be proud of your work.

Good job, there needs to be more poetry like this instead of the usual pretentious garbage.
