Many of us absolutely love animals. We love to watch videos of cute cats on the Internet and can't get enough stories about adorable dogs.

While we certainly have strong feelings for all animal-kind, there are certain people that truly GET animals.

This story is about one girl that has an undeniably special bond with her horses.

Lily Rae, the five-year-old girl at the heart of this story, hails from Texas. This adorable little girl really loves horses. Her passion for all things horse goes beyond human understanding as she has come to be known as the "horse whisperer".

Blessed with the opportunity to grow up and live around horses, Lily Rae's love of these creatures is essentially in her blood.

Lily's mother grew up caring for horses, as Samantha Victoria Buncher (Lily's mom) is a horse trainer. Samantha heads up the Sky High Equestrian Center based out of Tomball, Texas.

For Samantha, her love of horses started when she was around seven years old in a barn in Virginia. As she grew older, her ability to communicate with her horses was quite apparent.

At 14, Samantha was connected with a trainer that could better explain horse nature to her in a way that motivated her like never before.

It was Samantha's experiences in riding and training that led her to become the professional horsewoman that she is today. She is now a specialized broker and matches horses to the perfect riders.

At the age of four, Samantha's daughter was already jumping, cantering, and guiding her pony. The level of skill that Lily shows is far beyond her years.

For a four-year-old, this is a pretty amazing feat! Most adults can't accomplish half of the riding that Lily does on a regular basis. Lily and her mom truly have a way with horses.

Despite this excellence in riding and technique, the now five-year-old Lily has gone viral after a video showing her soothing her horse was posted online.

In the viral video, Lily is seen snuggling up to a white horse, with her face pressed against it. She pets the horse and strokes its face, as the animal peacefully and lovingly snuggles back.

Lily clearly loves her horses and knows just how to communicate with them. What is even more astonishing is how much the horses clearly love her back.

Once this touching video was picked up by a news station, Lily's love for horses went viral.

Though Lily is tiny, she clearly has a powerful way with animals.

The horses are more than twice Lily's size, but she loves them all just the same. While any other child her age would likely be scared to be near these horses, Lily is so full of love and light that she understands that these gentle giants will never hurt her.

Watch the video for yourself to see how incredible Lily is with her horses! Don't forget to tell us what you think and feel free to pass this along to your friends and family too!
