 After reading a lot and trying to understand people explain it, I made an image in my mind that "fundamental particles are a given position in space to which is given properties", being these properties the spin, mass, energy, etc, and don't forgetting that  even the 'space' itself is formed  by particles. Does that description is correct or at least I came close to understand it? If it's not right could you please help me see how it works(of course if it be possible to explain)?   Thanks guys.
