Actually, this was the only feasible option I had; Hanaho simply shipped me the microswitch; for which I was grateful. It was simple enough to remove the bad one and put the new one in.

How I did it: Lots and lots of Googling, practice, trial and error, speaking to professional technicians-- pretty much the same way most any tech does it. See my "become a computer technician" goal if you're wondering on some of the particulars. Read how I did it…
I have not been consistent but as I have fallen ill I figured it was time to start again.
I think this is a journey that will take a lifetime, to be completely honest.
And as far as “people”—I believe that one should include oneself.
Jesus of Nazareth taught two things, among many:
1. Judge not that you are not judged, for what measure you mete out, it is measured to you again.
2. Love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind, and strength; and love your neighbor as you love yourself. On these hang all the Law and the Prophets (Old Testament).
I interpret this as meaning do not judge others in a way that you would not also judge yourself, and love them as you love yourself. I believe this is the way of balance, where justice and mercy are as yin and yang.
