Sartre argues that freedom terrifies us, yet we cannot escape it, because we are it. He divides all of the being into two realms, pour-soi et en-soi. Pour-soi is us, humans, our consciousness which has no real being, we are nothing. We are nothing, therefore, we are free. We are free to define ourselves. We are nothing beyond what we decide to be.
