authenticity and individual freedom in existentialism
"Authenticity in existentialism refers to the commitment of individuals to live true to themselves, their values, and their own personal meaning of life, rather than conforming to societal expectations or external influences. Individual freedom, in this context, is the notion that individuals have the power and responsibility to make choices and create their own lives, accepting the consequences and embracing the uncertainty and existential angst that accompanies this freedom."
