But is there one of those?

I'd say that depends on your definition of what "me" is. If you think the individual is the enduring soul, which never ceases to exist, then yes.

Of course this requires you to believe there is a soul.

If you believe that an individual is only that person while alive, then no, so you'd have to say "the whole /lifetime/" instead of "the whole of time".
