The quality of being generous; the tendency to give freely, share openly, and act with kindness.
From 'generous' plus the noun suffix '-ness'. 'Generous' comes from Old French 'genereus', Latin 'generosus' (of noble birth), which eventually came to mean noble in character.
Studies show that 'generousness' actually makes people happier than receiving gifts—our brains are wired to feel better giving than getting, which contradicts everything capitalism wants us to believe.
