lightheartedness
Buoyant, playful mood
Lightheartedness is a cheerful, carefree quality—freedom from worry or seriousness.
It describes both a mood and a personality trait: There was a lightheartedness to the gathering that put everyone at ease.
The word suggests buoyancy rather than depth, appropriate levity rather than gravity.
