Matter: physical substance in general, as distinct from mind and spirit; (in physics) that which occupies space and possesses rest mass, especially as distinct from energy.
When someone asks, “What’s the matter?” the focus is often on an individual’s emotional state of being. However, matter is always distinct from mind and spirit. It is a physical substance that occupies natural space. The question itself should effectuate the acknowledgement that what is happening around us can not get in us.
Don’t allow temporal matters to write the script for your emotional state of being. Unyoke your mind and spirit from the matter at hand.
