Mak, you are becoming a master of the opening sentence. "As I walked towards the entrance, I thought “Just go for it.” I pushed open the big glass doors and stepped onto the laminated flooring of the reception area." Those three words "Just go for it," so well draws me in, makes me wonder, go for what? What is hesitant about? Seriously I just wish people who interested in being better storytellers would come here to your publication and look back from the beginning of your posts and see the evolution of your storytelling. It's a stellar example of how to improve.

Thanks Rick.
I was studying your essay two weeks ago to improve my openers and titles.
