Is there a possibility of a *real* temporary self?

It can be understood that the self is not some real permanent thing, but I wish to know whether we can find a real *temporary* self? We can define a temporary self, which lasts for some small duration, and at a certain location. For example, we can identify this temporary self with the mind which is controlling the ideas I am presenting here as a question. Is this definition of a temporary self in some sense real?
