Maybe you misinterpreted it. For me I have many other things to worry about and take for granted in my life other than it being the last track day of the season. I understand how you feel completely and I know it sucks but I feel personally there are other things to be worried about, maybe not for you but for me there are. Being on crutches for 6 weeks really made me appreciate being able to just walk normally and that in my crash I was not injured any worse than a broken foot. It really puts things in perspective when you can't drive, or even walk up stairs to get to your fridge to grab a drink.
When I go to the track I treat it as if its my last day there because for all I know it very well may be. We all know this is a very dangerous sport, accidents happen whether you control them or not. And it's not just personal injury reasons that makes me think this way but in my situation I have financial, mechanical and mental reasons as well. Thats why I always ride to the end of the day so as long as I'm not hurt. Whethers its raining snowing hailing I ride the till the last session so I can take for granted the whole day.
