Imagine walking out to your car one day and hearing hooves pounding down your street. Depending on where you live, that might be completely normal, but for TikToker Kasey Philyaw, being greeted by a runaway horse definitely wasn't on her bingo card.

Be sure to turn your sound on because you can hear the horse before you ever see him. As he gallops past, he suddenly stops right in front of Kasey, lets out an incredibly loud neigh, and then casually continues on his way as if he had planned to stop and say hello all along. Kasey can't help but ask, "Who do you belong to?" but not surprisingly, her unexpected visitor keeps that little detail to himself.

Good morning to you too no other good morning text will ever do

Kasey shared in the caption that she was feeling "chosen" after this happened and added, "No other good morning text will ever do..."

This left us all wondering: Why doesn't anything this cool ever happen to us?!
