Lifespans

Everything lives a lifetime. These bugs that you say live for one day, do not live for one day, they live a lifetime. A pigeon see's movies as slideshows, they see so much faster than we do, so does that mean that they process things faster, and therefore a second for us, is more like ten seconds for a pigeon? Then theoretically, they are living 10 times longer per second than we are, so when they die after a year of living, they are really living much much longer in their minds.

So when we say a fly lives for one day, they probably aren't. In their small world they are living a lifetime. The equivalent of what we are living.
