Letters?

I'm not sure if letters can be considered media, but after thinking about the definition, I have realized that they definitely fit the definition! Media can be any type of communication between a sender and a receiver through the use of a medium. I had never thought about letters being a type of media, but interestingly enough, they ARE! Pretty cool. I just came to this realization this week as I reflected on a letter I received from my sister. Then that led me to the realization that anything we get in the mail is also media. Think of all the advertisements and junk mail that get sent to us by companies that want us to buy from them or use their products. Sometimes it is overwhelming! Anyway, I thought it was a pretty cool "a ha!" moment that I wanted to share with you. Just food for thought. :)
