Ca: El sol de la tardor il·luminava suaument les muntanyes de Montserrat, donant als pics una càlida brillantor.
En: The autumn sun gently illuminated the mountains of Montserrat, giving the peaks a warm glow.

Ca: El Monestir de Montserrat, majestuós i tranquil, estava envoltat de visitants que buscaven una pausa espiritual.
En: The Monestir de Montserrat, majestic and peaceful, was surrounded by visitors seeking a spiritual break.

Ca: Entre ells, es trobava l'Oriol, qui acabava d'arribar amb el cor pesat de records i emocions del seu últim trencament amorós.
En: Among them was Oriol, who had just arrived with a heart heavy with memories and emotions from his recent breakup.

Ca: Un aire fresc li bufava a la cara, com si la natura volgués consolar-lo.
En: A fresh breeze blew on his face, as if nature wanted to comfort him.

Ca: L'Oriol volia trobar la pau i la claredat que tant anhelava.
En: Oriol wanted to find the peace and clarity he so longed for.

Ca: Es va apuntar a un retir espiritual, esperant que l'entorn apartés les ombres del seu passat.
En: He signed up for a spiritual retreat, hoping the surroundings would cast away the shadows of his past.

Ca: Mentre passejava pels passadissos del monestir, es va topar amb una cara familiar: la Marina.
En: As he walked through the monastery corridors, he bumped into a familiar face: Marina.

Ca: Feia anys que no la veia.
En: He hadn't seen her in years.

Ca: Sempre recordava la seva energia i amor per la vida.
En: He always remembered her energy and love for life.

Ca: —Oriol!
En: "Oriol!"

Ca: —va exclamar la Marina, sorpresa però radiant de veure'l.
En: exclaimed Marina, surprised but radiant to see him.

Ca: Ell va somriure, encara que una mica incòmode.
En: He smiled, though a bit awkwardly.

Ca: No sabia com explicar-li tot el que havia passat.
En: He didn't know how to explain everything that had happened to him.

Ca: Tot i així, van parlar una estona, compartint histories i riures.
En: Nonetheless, they talked for a while, sharing stories and laughter.

Ca: La Marina, sense saber què li turmentava, sentia una estranya connexió.
En: Marina, unaware of what troubled him, felt a strange connection.

Ca: Sempre havia trobat inspiració en Montserrat, i potser aquest cop la seva inspiració era estar allà per Oriol.
En: She had always found inspiration in Montserrat, and perhaps this time her inspiration was to be there for Oriol.

Ca: Els dies passaven i l'Oriol lluitava amb els seus sentiments.
En: Days passed, and Oriol struggled with his feelings.

Ca: Els records del passat li venien com onades, incontrolables i persistents.
En: Memories of the past came to him like waves, uncontrollable and persistent.

Ca: La Marina, amb paciència i amb el seu esperit lliure, proposava noves perspectives.
En: Marina, with patience and her free spirit, proposed new perspectives.

Ca: Això al principi incomodava a Oriol, qui encara estava ancorat en els seus temors.
En: This initially made Oriol uncomfortable, as he was still anchored in his fears.

Ca: Un vespre, durant una sessió de meditació, la llum del capvespre il·luminava el paisatge, pintant-lo de colors càlids.
En: One evening, during a meditation session, the twilight light illuminated the landscape, painting it with warm colors.

Ca: Tots dos es van trobar asseguts en silenci, contemplant la grandesa de les muntanyes.
En: Both sat in silence, contemplating the grandeur of the mountains.

Ca: La Marina, amb veu suau, va encoratjar l'Oriol a parlar.
En: Marina, with a soft voice, encouraged Oriol to speak.

Ca: —De vegades només cal deixar anar el passat per permetre que el futur arribi —va dir ella, mirant-lo als ulls.
En: "Sometimes you just need to let go of the past to allow the future to arrive," she said, looking into his eyes.

Ca: L'Oriol va sentir que unes llàgrimes lliscaven per les seves galtes.
En: Oriol felt tears slide down his cheeks.

Ca: Va obrir el cor i li va explicar a la Marina tot el dolor retingut, totes les pors.
En: He opened his heart and told Marina all the pain held inside, all the fears.

Ca: En aquell moment, va experimentar una pausa, una claredat que no havia tingut en mesos.
En: In that moment, he experienced a pause, a clarity he hadn't had in months.

Ca: Va ser com si un pes li hagués caigut.
En: It was as if a weight had lifted from him.

Ca: El matí següent, l'Oriol es va acomiadar de la Marina i de Montserrat amb un somriure sincer.
En: The next morning, Oriol said goodbye to Marina and Montserrat with a sincere smile.

Ca: Se sentia alliberat i amb esperança.
En: He felt liberated and hopeful.

Ca: La Marina, veient-lo marxar, va saber que havia estat al lloc correcte, en el moment correcte.
En: Marina, watching him leave, knew she had been in the right place at the right time.

Ca: Haver ajudat l'Oriol li havia donat un nou sentit de connexió i propòsit.
En: Helping Oriol had given her a new sense of connection and purpose.

Ca: Així, l'Oriol va deixar Montserrat amb una nova il·lusió per la vida, obert als canvis i amb la confiança renovada.
En: Thus, Oriol left Montserrat with a new excitement for life, open to change and with renewed confidence.

Ca: Mentre baixava el camí de la muntanya, amb l'aire de la tardor al seu voltant, va sentir que el món estava ple de possibilitats.
En: As he walked down the mountain path, with the autumn air around him, he felt that the world was full of possibilities.

Ca: La Marina, d'altra banda, es quedava amb la satisfacció de saber que havia estat amiga quan es necessitava.
En: Marina, on the other hand, remained with the satisfaction of knowing she had been a friend when needed.

Ca: I Montserrat, entre cants de serenitat, va seguir donant la seva màgia als qui buscaven respostes.
En: And Montserrat, amidst chants of serenity, continued to lend its magic to those seeking answers.
