The Future is the self awaited as the completion of what it lacks

Evidence

The project of the For-itself toward the future which it is is a project toward the In-itself. In this sense the For-itself has to be its future because it can be the foundation of what it is only before itself and beyond being. It is the very nature of the For-itself that it must be “an always future hollow.” For this reason it will never have become, in the Present, what it had to be, in the Future. — Jean-Paul Sartre, Being and Nothingness, 453 (#expands, via linked claim)
