Observations

Butterflies live for just a  day, or so they say. That gives rise to three questions. 

First: Do they therefore experience their lives as being short? 

Second: Why does one never see a dead butterfly? Surely the world must be full of their lifeless bodies?

Third: Do butterflies believe in reincarnation? They certainly have reason to.
