warmth
Fireplace's invisible gift
Warmth is the quality of being moderately hot—not cold, not scorching: the warmth of the sun on my face.
The word extends naturally to emotional temperature: a warm personality radiates warmth, meaning friendliness and affection.
There was real warmth in her greeting.
Warmth can describe colors too—reds, oranges, and yellows that seem to glow with heat.
