Marko je stajao na rubu cvjetne farme u Hrvatskom Zagorju.
Marko stood at the edge of a flower farm in Hrvatsko Zagorje.
Ispred njega prostirali su se polja s kasnim cvijećem koje je jesen obojila toplim bojama.
In front of him stretched fields with late flowers that autumn had painted in warm colors.
Zrak je bio svjež i pun mirisa palećeg lišća.
The air was fresh and full of the scent of burning leaves.
Marko duboko udahne, spušta mobitel u džep i odlučuje: danas će biti bez tehnologije.
Marko took a deep breath, put his cellphone in his pocket, and decided: today would be technology-free.
Ana i Ivan, vlasnici farme, toplo su ga dočekali.
Ana and Ivan, the farm owners, warmly welcomed him.
„Dobrodošao, Marko,“ rekla je Ana s osmijehom.
"Welcome, Marko," Ana said with a smile.
„Uživaj u tišini.
"Enjoy the silence.
Ovdje možeš pronaći sebe.
Here you can find yourself."
“Marko je zahvalno kimnuo glavom.
Marko nodded gratefully.
Krenuo je među cvjetne redove.
He headed among the flower rows.
Svaki korak udaljavao ga je od stresne svakodnevice grada.
Each step took him further away from the stressful daily life of the city.
Razmišljao je o svom poslu u tehnološkoj tvrtki.
He thought about his job at the technology company.
U posljednje vrijeme pritisak je postao neizdrživ.
Lately, the pressure had become unbearable.
Želio je jednostavniji život, bliži prirodi.
He wanted a simpler life, closer to nature.
Sjeo je na drvenu klupu između javorovih stabala.
He sat on a wooden bench between maple trees.
Lišće je šuštalo pod laganim povjetarcem.
The leaves rustled under a gentle breeze.
Zatvorio je oči, uronjen u tišinu.
He closed his eyes, immersed in the silence.
Misli su mu lutale prema obitelji.
His thoughts wandered to his family.
Što će reći ako napusti siguran posao?
What would they say if he left a secure job?
Vrijeme je prolazilo.
Time passed.
Sunce je počelo zalaziti, bojajući nebo zlatnim nijansama.
The sun began to set, painting the sky with golden hues.
Marko se iznenada osjetio ispunjeno.
Marko suddenly felt fulfilled.
Poslušao je svoje srce.
He listened to his heart.
Znao je da život koji želi mora biti u skladu s prirodom, daleko od neprekidne gradske buke.
He knew that the life he wanted had to be in harmony with nature, far from the ceaseless city noise.
Ustao je i polako se uputio natrag prema farmi.
He stood up and slowly headed back towards the farm.
Ana i Ivan stajali su ispred kuće, zureći u zalazak sunca.
Ana and Ivan stood in front of the house, gazing at the sunset.
„Hvala vam,“ rekao je Marko.
"Thank you," Marko said.
„Mislim da sam pronašao ono što trebam učiniti.
"I think I've found what I need to do."
“Ana se nasmiješila.
Ana smiled.
„Cvijeće često pomaže pronaći odgovore.
"Flowers often help to find answers."
“Kad se vratio u grad, Marko je osjećao mir.
When he returned to the city, Marko felt at peace.
Bio je spreman suočiti se s obitelji i šefom.
He was ready to face his family and his boss.
Znao je da će im objasniti svoju odluku.
He knew he would explain his decision to them.
Neće biti lako, ali važnije mu je bilo slijediti srce.
It wouldn't be easy, but it was more important to him to follow his heart.
S promijenjenim pogledom, Marko je znao da može izgraditi život blizu prirode, gdje će biti sretniji.
With a changed perspective, Marko knew he could build a life close to nature, where he would be happier.
Odluka je pala, a osjećaj sigurnosti nikada nije bio jači.
The decision was made, and the feeling of certainty had never been stronger.
Po prvi put nakon dugo vremena, osjećao je istinski mir.
For the first time in a long while, he felt true peace.
