We think of time as one of the world’s few constants. But that’s not the case. One hour to most humans is easily understood. But to a mayfly which has a lifespan of about 1 day, an hour is a meaningful chunk of their lives (equivalent to over 3 human years). That same hour could very well feel the same to that mayfly as what three years feels like for us.
