El vent bufava suau mentre Oriol pujava la muntanya de Montserrat, un lloc que havia visitat moltes vegades.

The wind blew softly as Oriol climbed the mountain of Montserrat, a place he had visited many times.

La tardor vestia el paisatge amb tons càlids, però aquell dia la boira havia embolcallat tot al seu voltant.

Autumn dressed the landscape with warm tones, but that day the fog had wrapped everything around him.

Estava decidit a trobar-se a si mateix en aquell excursionisme solitari entre les roques i els camins sinuosos.

He was determined to find himself in that solitary hike among the rocks and winding paths.

La muntanya era imponent, amb les seves formacions rocoses magnífiques.

The mountain was imposing, with its magnificent rock formations.

La boira, però, la feia temible.

The fog, however, made it formidable.

Oriol havia començat a caminar amb seguretat, però aviat es va adonar que havia perdut el rastre del camí.

Oriol had started walking confidently, but soon realized he had lost track of the path.

Els sons de la natura es convertien en el seu món mentre es trobava envoltat de res més que densitat blanca.

The sounds of nature became his world as he found himself surrounded by nothing but dense white.

Tot i que sabia que havia d'estar alerta, dins d'ell creixia una altra tempesta: els seus dubtes sobre el futur.

Although he knew he had to stay alert, another storm was growing inside him: his doubts about the future.

Volia aclarir la seva ment, resoldre els seus pensaments.

He wanted to clear his mind, resolve his thoughts.

Tanmateix, el perímetre de la boira envaïa el seu cap, fent que cada decisió fos una lluita.

However, the perimeter of the fog invaded his head, making every decision a struggle.

Mentre avançava, va sentir un so distant.

As he continued on, he heard a distant sound.

Un so familiar: el repic d'una campana amagada en la boira.

A familiar sound: the ringing of a bell hidden in the fog.

Semblava llunyà però constant.

It seemed distant but constant.

Els seus instints li deien que confiés en aquell so.

His instincts told him to trust that sound.

Tornava a posar el peu en moviment, amb cada pas pesat per la incertesa.

He began moving forward again, each step heavy with uncertainty.

Oriol va continuar, tot i la visibilitat gairebé nul·la, seguint el so de la campana.

Oriol carried on, despite the almost nonexistent visibility, following the sound of the bell.

De sobte, es va trobar al límit d'un precipici.

Suddenly, he found himself at the edge of a cliff.

El cor li bategava ràpidament, tant per la por com per l'adrenalina.

His heart beat rapidly, both from fear and adrenaline.

Va inspirar profundament, recordant-se que no estava sol, que la campana encara ressonava.

He took a deep breath, reminding himself that he wasn’t alone, that the bell still resonated.

El so s'apropava cada vegada més, guiant-lo gairebé com una mà a través de la boira.

The sound grew closer and closer, guiding him almost like a hand through the fog.

Amb compte, va retrocedir i va seguir endavant, amb la campana com a guia.

Carefully, he retreated and continued forward, with the bell as his guide.

La boira començava a dissoldre’s, i enfosquir-se una mica l'angoixa del seu interior.

The fog began to dissipate, and the anxiety inside him darkened slightly.

Finalment, Oriol va tornar a reconèixer el camí.

Finally, Oriol recognized the path again.

La boira es feia menys densa a mesura que el so de la campana esdevenia esperançadorament proper.

The fog became less dense as the sound of the bell became hopefully closer.

Havia superat no només el perill del moment, sinó també l'opacitat dels seus pensaments.

He had overcome not only the immediate danger but also the opacity of his thoughts.

De tornada a la sendera segura, Oriol va fer una pausa.

Back on the safe trail, Oriol paused.

Es va adonar que podia confiar en els seus instints, tant a la muntanya com en la vida.

He realized he could trust his instincts, both on the mountain and in life.

El seu camí s'havia aclarit, i amb ell, la confiança en sí mateix.

His path had cleared, and with it, his confidence in himself.

Es va sentir renovat, preparat per afrontar el seu futur amb optimisme.

He felt renewed, ready to face his future with optimism.

La boira s'aixecava, i Oriol encetava el camí cap a casa amb un somriure, percebent que el veritable sender estava dins de si.

The fog lifted, and Oriol set off on the path home with a smile, realizing that the true path lay within him.
