What is `Matter`-1 !?
(モノ)
I.
Matter is defined as an abstraction for the world of physical objects. The category of 'matter' is like category of 'fruit'. One cannot eat the fruit; one can only eat a specific kind of fruit, such as Apple. Thus. Matter like fruit, does not exist; only specific concrete examples of matter can exist.
Matter is definitely not what it was once thought to be: a set of feeling or substance within the indivisible atoms of which the external world is composed.
In the modern view, matter consists of specific objects within specific objects ad infinitum.
This objectives view stresses the importance of the external world of matter, and thus is philosophically opposed to subjective idealism. And because it emphasizes the importance of matter, this philosophy is called, materialism.
Materialism is 'a theory that physical matter is the only or fundamental reality that all being, processes and phenomena, can be explained as manifestation, or result of matter.
Science is materialist and demanding that its theory and explanation confront the external world. The first assumption of science is materialism: 'the external world exists after the observer does not'.

C. 1200, materie, "the subject of a mental act
or a course of thought, speech, or expression, from Anglo-France matere, Old French matere "subject, theme, topic; substance, content; character, education" (12C., Modern French matiere) and directly from Latin materia "substance from which something is made," also "hard inner wood of a tree."
According to de Vaan and Watkins, this is from mater "origin, source, mother". The sense developed and expanded in Latin in philosophy by influence of Greek hyle (hylo) "wood, firewood, " in a general sense "material, " used by Aristotle for "matter" in the philosophical sense.
The Latin word also is the source of Spanish, Portuguese, and Italian materia, Dutch, German, and Danish materie, vernacular Spanish madera, Portuguese maderia "wood". The Middle English word also sometimes was used specifically as "piece of wood."
From c.1200 as "a subject of a literary work, content of what is written, main theme;" sense of "narrative, tale, story" is from c.1300. Meaning "physical substance generally" is from mid-14c.; that of "substance of which some specific object is or may be composed" is attested from late 14c. Meaning "piece of business, affair, activity, situation; subject of debate or controversy, question under discussion" is from late 14c. In law, "something which is to be tried or proved, " 1530s.
Matter of course "something expected" attested from 1739 (adjectival phrase matter-of-course "proceeding as a natural consequence" is by 1840). For that matter "as far as that goes, as far as that is concerned" is attested from 1670s.
What is the matter "what concerns (someone), what is the cause of difficulty" is attested from mid-15c., from matter in the sense of "circumstance or condition as affecting persons and things." To make no matter to "be no difference to" also is mid-15c., with matter in the meaning "importance, consequence."

ありがとう?さようなら ともだち
ひとつずつの笑顔 はずむ声
夏の日ざしにも 冬の空の下でも
みんなまぶしく 輝いていた
ありがとう?さようなら ともだち

走るように過ぎた 楽しい日
思い出の傷(きず)が 残るあの机に
だれが今度は すわるんだろう
ありがとう?さようなら 教室

しかられたことさえ あたたかい
新しい風に 夢の翼(つばさ)ひろげて
ひとりひとりが 飛びたつ時
