Your article is just in sync with my perspective. I like to discern between "react" and "respond".

"re-act" means repeating past patterns by transferring them onto the present moment, shutting close any viable solutions.

"responsibility" is the ability to respond. Which means stopping transferring past patterns onto the present moment, and instead recognize that this moment is not defined by the past but is new and comes with limitless possibilites and solutions open to us.
