Meaningfulness comes from what you care about. I wonder why you were interested in programming-language concepts before but now (apparently) stopped caring about the code. The code still remains the language that communicates the actual program logic.
I guess a large part of my motivation was that it makes me a more effective and skilled programmer. There are countless of interesting things out there, and the motivation to focus on one comes from what you do with it later on.
