Matter has its origin in either the condensate interaction of 
Goldstone-Higgs bosons or with strong asymptotic QCD. With the Goldstone 
bosons the degree of freedom of the scalar fields enters into a 
longitudinal degree of freedom in weak flavor changing or isospin fields or 
in fermions. With QCD the interaction is strong so there is no possible 
escape for a the massless gauge boson or gluon. So one can think of these 
as a situation where a massless particle is trapped in some small volume so 
from a large scale it appears to be a massive particle with a timelike 
direction. There really is not anything else to it.
