I was driving from so cali to no cali awhile back, and I stopped at a gas station, gave the cashier 5.00 for gas, but when I was putting the gas in my car, the pump kept going until it was full and totalled 13 dollars and some change! I went inside and paid the difference, but the cashier was so mad at me, I mean if looks could kill....~!!!!! I am glad I was honest, but sorry the cashier couldn't see it that way.

I was raised to do the right thing-always. You can logically save your *ss, do the easy thing, or keep your mouth closed. I will always do the moral thing. My idol, Dr. Martin Luthar King said that it is a man's moral responsibility to break an unjust law. Much the same, I feel a moral responsiblity to do the right thing and try to stop some of the cr*p in today's society.

i admire ur question,
i will not tell a story about my self but its about some one i love hope this is ok with u,its about visitng the sick ppl moral:
As with every other virtuous deed and noble duty, Prophet Muhammad led by example. He would both make time to personally visit the sick and also enquire after them through others.

Whilst in Mecca, for example, a pagan woman was given to throw filth and garbage upon the Prophet whenever he passed her house. One day, the noticeable absence of the Prophet’s abuser concerned him so much that he enquired after her. When he learnt of her sickness, he visited her. She was so taken aback by his merciful concern and that she embraced Islam.

“Repel (the evil of your foe) with what is better: then lo! the one between whom and you was enmity (will come to you) as if he were a dear friend.” (Quran 41:34)

The learned Companion, Anas b. Malik, also related the following episode from the life of God’s Final Prophet to humanity:

“A Jewish boy who would serve the Prophet fell sick, so the Prophet said: ‘Let us go and visit him.’ They (the Prophet and his illustrious Companions) went to visit him and found his father sitting by his head. The Messenger of God, may God praise him, said: ‘Proclaim that there is no true deity worthy of being worshipped except God alone, and I will intercede on your behalf on account of it on the Day of Resurrection.’ The boy looked at his father and the father said: ‘Obey Abul-Qasim (Muhammad)!’ So the boy uttered: ‘There is no true deity worthy of being worshipped except God alone, and Muhammad is the last Messenger.’ The Messenger of God then said: ‘All praise is due to God Who saved him from the Fire of Hell.’”[5]

From these two examples from life of the Prophet, we find that it is not a precondition that the sick being visited are from within the fold of Islam. Nevertheless, from these two examples, we find that the act of visiting the sick and suffering, as exemplified by the Prophet Muhammad, can be such a touching and moving experience that it might even cure that most fateful of diseases: infidelity.

“Indeed in the Messenger of God you have an excellent example to follow for whoever hopes in God and the Last Day and remembers God much.” (Quran 33:21)
