Ca: Al campament hospital, l'activitat no parava mai.
En: At the hospital camp, the activity never stopped.
Ca: Els fulls daurats dels arbres es veien a través de les finestres, i el vent fred anunciava l'arribada de la tardor.
En: The golden leaves of the trees could be seen through the windows, and the cold wind announced the arrival of autumn.
Ca: Oriol, un infermer entregat i compassiu, es movia ràpidament entre els pacients.
En: Oriol, a dedicated and compassionate nurse, moved quickly among the patients.
Ca: Com sempre, prioritzava les necessitats dels altres a les seves pròpies.
En: As always, he prioritized the needs of others over his own.
Ca: Però avui era diferent.
En: But today was different.
Ca: Avui, la seva amiga i companya, Gemma, li havia recordat que era hora de cuidar-se ell mateix.
En: Today, his friend and colleague, Gemma, had reminded him that it was time to take care of himself.
Ca: "Hem d'anar a comprar sabates noves, Oriol," va dir Gemma mentre li passava els informes d'un pacient.
En: "We need to go buy new shoes, Oriol," Gemma said as she handed him a patient's reports.
Ca: "No pots seguir amb aquestes.
En: "You can't keep going with those."
Ca: "Oriol va mirar les seves velles sabates.
En: Oriol looked at his old shoes.
Ca: Estaven desgastades, sense suport suficient, però encara eren elegants.
En: They were worn out, lacking sufficient support, but still stylish.
Ca: Li agradaven, però sabia que Gemma tenia raó.
En: He liked them, but he knew Gemma was right.
Ca: Als llargs torns a l'hospital, el mal a les cames començava a passar-li factura.
En: During the long shifts at the hospital, the pain in his legs was beginning to take its toll.
Ca: Quan van sortir del campament, els carrers estaven plens de gent que celebrava La Diada de Sant Feliu.
En: When they left the camp, the streets were full of people celebrating La Diada de Sant Feliu.
Ca: Oriol va sentir el caliu de la festa, però també la urgència d'arreglar les seves sabates.
En: Oriol felt the warmth of the festival, but also the urgency of fixing his shoes.
Ca: Van arribar a una botiga local.
En: They arrived at a local store.
Ca: Gemma va començar a buscar directament a la secció de sabates còmodes.
En: Gemma immediately started looking in the comfortable shoes section.
Ca: "Mira aquests," va dir ella, aixecant una parella robusta però poc atractiva.
En: "Look at these," she said, lifting a sturdy but unattractive pair.
Ca: "Perfectes per a tu.
En: "Perfect for you."
Ca: "Oriol va somriure, escèptic.
En: Oriol smiled, skeptical.
Ca: Amb l'ajuda de Gemma, va provar diverses parelles.
En: With Gemma's help, he tried on several pairs.
Ca: Unes eren massa dures, altres massa amples.
En: Some were too hard, others too wide.
Ca: Finalment, es va posar un parell que semblava abraçar perfectament el seu peu.
En: Finally, he put on a pair that seemed to fit his foot perfectly.
Ca: "Són còmodes", va admetre, malgrat que estaven lluny de ser de moda.
En: "They're comfortable," he admitted, even though they were far from fashionable.
Ca: Gemma va somriure, satisfeta.
En: Gemma smiled, satisfied.
Ca: "Veus?
En: "See?
Ca: La comoditat és el que importa, sobretot al nostre treball.
En: Comfort is what matters, especially in our line of work."
Ca: "Oriol, per fi, va cedir.
En: Oriol, at last, gave in.
Ca: Va comprar les sabates, sentint una barreja de relleu i agraïment.
En: He bought the shoes, feeling a mixture of relief and gratitude.
Ca: De tornada, amb les noves sabates posades, va reflexionar sobre el dia.
En: On the way back, with the new shoes on, he reflected on the day.
Ca: Va entendre que cuidar-se a ell mateix era part important del seu treball.
En: He understood that taking care of himself was an important part of his job.
Ca: Si no ho feia, no podria cuidar els altres com calia.
En: If he didn't, he wouldn't be able to care for others properly.
Ca: Mentre seguien caminant de tornada al campament, va mirar Gemma, amb un somriure sincer.
En: As they continued walking back to the camp, he looked at Gemma, with a sincere smile.
Ca: "Gràcies, Gemma.
En: "Thank you, Gemma.
Ca: Has fet que prengui la decisió correcta.
En: You helped me make the right decision."
Ca: "Ell es va adonar que, igual que els fulls daurats es deixaven portar pel vent de tardor, ell també havia de deixar-se portar a decisions que afavorissin el seu benestar.
En: He realized that, just as the golden leaves let themselves be carried by the autumn wind, he too had to let himself be guided to decisions that favored his well-being.
Ca: Així, amb les noves sabates ben posades, es va disposar a tornar al seu lloc entre els pacients, sabent que amb un cos ben cuidat, podia donar el millor d'ell mateix.
En: Thus, with the new shoes properly on, he prepared to return to his place among the patients, knowing that with a well-cared-for body, he could give the best of himself.
