Energy is the source of all mass. To break it down, we find different kinds of particles but this difference is really only the different geometric character of energy flux within a confined space. All matter, even the smallest particles are made of the same stuff; Energy. Moving on, we now need to identify, what is Energy.

My personal definition: Quantum changes thru the geometry of space.

The great question now is 'What is space', for this, I have no answer.
