We are made off stuff. If you break the stuff down to the smallest possible level, you get elementary particles. But according to Quantum Field Theory, what we experience as elementary particles are just fluctuations in the fields for those particles, in the same way a photon is a fluctuation in the electromagnetic field, and an electron is just a fluctuation the electric field. These fields overlap each other and exist throughout all of space. They interact, like the way the Higgs field gives particles mass. Reality for us is what we perceive, but the true reality may be just the fields. You could think of them as God's computer program for the Universe.
