A Butterfly’s Awareness of Time

If a butterfly has an awareness of time,
I wonder if its life of only weeks
feels the same as a human’s life
of years?

One thing I know; a butterfly has far
more predators than a human

birds, reptiles, amphibians and
some insects

essentially, we, assuming you are
human too, 🙂

have only other humans to worry
about killing us

so a butterfly’s life could
be less than weeks

whereas, a human has a better
chance of living a full life

except for predatory disases
that stalk and kill many of us

some of us living less days than
butterflies

and probably without an awareness
of time in those drastically
shortened lifes

in that regard, I believe
those that live days or

less than a few weeks
have the same lack of

an awareness of time
that I believe a butterfly
does.
