These are relative terms. Whatever is right for me, may be a wrong for somebody. Nobody can decide which is absolute right or wrong. Absolute right is the ultimate truth. Best is, whatever ur conscious feels is right, is right, and whatever ur conscious feels wrong, is wrong---as far as ur concerned. U shud care for ur conscious...Gee Waman

Right is that which does not keep the species or ourselves as individuals from advancing (in that order) while causing the least amount of harm to the fewest number of people.
Wrong is the opposite of right.
Of course I can't take into account every situation, so let's throw in the possibility of case by case evaluation.

Both are subject to context and situation. A person may say that it is always wrong to kill another individual, but may not hesitate when suddenly the choice is to kill or be killed. If one believes that it is wrong to kill animals, would they hesitate to kill the lion that threatens to kill their child? Right and wrong are always relatives that always vary with the context of the situation and society.

Walking down the street and seeing a homeless person and giving him food or clothing is right. Walking down the street seeing a homeless person and walking right on is wrong.

"moral" right and wrong are self-defined...or defined by a particular group that you subscribe to and believe in-
there is no intrinsic "right" and "wrong"- that too, depends on your perspective and where you are coming from
all depends on what you are trying to achieve...
my intention is to progress and evolve spiritually, so for me, based on what i know and believe, i am working on living these virtues-
right / wrong:
loving kindness, compassion, peace / hate, anger, injury
moderation / excessiveness
modesty and selflessness / pride and ego
generosity / greed
honesty / false representation
dilligence / laziness

Right and wrong are complimentary. One is not possible without the other. Human mind is a constant back and forth. You stand as observer of both sides. Right or wrong is the minds way of coloring "what IS".

there is no such thing as right and wrong.
to you, maybe is right, but to other is wrong,
to you, maybe is wrong, but to other is right.
so in logically speaking, the correct way to say that there is 2 status.
one is the result you want.
other is the result you don't want.
that is your right and wrong.

right: something that is good for the goal
wrong: something that is bad for the goal
now it all depends of your goal and intention.
