How often are you truly aware that you are doing something for the last time?

Asked by hominid (7357points) March 5th, 2015

In my experience, the last time doing anything seems to slip by unnoticed 100% of the time. Looking at my kids now as they get older, one day I was changing a diaper for the last time and didn’t notice. I carried my daughter on my back and didn’t give one thought to it being the last time.

Are people generally aware that there are a limited number of times we do anything, including the obvious, such as get up in the morning and see our loved ones? Do you ever accurately see this last time as being the last time? Or does it just pass unnoticed?
