首先是8月份（大概的）《洛杉矶时报》的新闻，Jason Mraz reveals early retirement plan, but first, a *Yes!* tour （马叔透露了提前退休的计划，不过，想让我们来期待YES的巡演！）
吧啦吧啦吧啦吧啦讲了一堆，然后结尾 I think, *This plane*s gonna go down,* and I kind of get [mad]," Mraz said. "I stress that I haven*t spent enough time in Virginia with my parents. I keep thinking I want to go back home and help them clean out their garage."（我觉大多数人还是会接受我退休的计划或者觉得我疯了。我现在没有很多的时间去陪伴我在弗吉尼亚州的父母。我不断地想回家，想和他们过一般人的生活）

然后今天又看到个...
‘I have a gift for you,” Jason Mraz said, arms outstretched.
马叔伸出手说“来，我有份礼物给你！”
Cupped in his palms was an avocado, bumpy and green. It came from a tree on his farm — “100% organic, Mraz Fresh,” the sticker read. Last year he sold 34,000 pounds of the fruit to Chipotle stores near his Oceanside, Calif., home. He grows other things on his land, too — peppers and corn and leafy greens. If he could, he said, he’d spend most of his days there, hands in the earth.
他双手手拿出凹凸不平的绿色鳄梨，这些鳄梨都是从他自己的农场里面种出来的，是100%新鲜的“马氏”有机农产品。去年，马叔卖了很多水果给他家附近的商店。而现在，马农夫在农场里开始尝试新的作物--胡椒，玉米和绿叶蔬菜。马农夫表示，如果可以的话，他想将自己生活的大部分时间花在做农活上，亲密的去接触自己所热爱的土地。
Mraz wants to garden more, surf more, have a kid, put some of the money he’s saved from selling 4.5 million albums nationwide toward a good cause. So he’s started a campaign with his manager: “#RetiredAt40.” He has one more album left on his contract with Atlantic Records, and then he plans to check out for a while.
马农夫想花时间去干农活，冲个浪，生个娃，再做点慈善。所以，他现在和他的经纪人开始计划 #在40岁退休 。目前他和Atlantic Records公司的合同里面还有一张专辑要出，在完成这张专辑之后就开始着手于普通人的生活。
“I’m just ready for a break. It feels like a corporate job sometimes,” the 37-year-old said recently.
我现在就是想休息会儿。
If #RetiredAt40 really does come to fruition, Mraz doesn’t plan on giving up music entirely. For each album he’s released, he has 70 leftover songs. He’d like to make an album for kids, and one filled with Christmas or gospel music.
如果真的到了 #40岁退休 的时候，马叔也不会完全的放弃他的音乐。他每次发新专辑之前，都会为这张专辑准备超过70首的歌曲。马叔很乐意为孩子准备一张专辑，这张专辑里面充满了圣诞福音的气息。
“The reality is, I think he’s really happy in his personal life right now,” said Sam Riback, Atlantic’s senior vice president and head of West Coast A&R. “He’s had more success than he could have imagined. So could he retire at 40? Maybe. But there’s a songwriter and a storyteller and performer in him. I have a feeling he’s gonna have many songs to write.”
Atlantic的副总裁Sam Ribacks说“事实上，我认为马叔现在正非常享受他的私人生活。他现在所获得的成功超出了他自己的想象。至于他要40岁退休嘛...有这个可能，但是他是这么优秀的一名原创歌手，说故事的好手以及拥有非凡的现场表演魅力的人，我感觉他反而会因为退休后的快乐生活去写更多的歌。”
