We will never forget that day. September 11, 2001 changed the lives of every American.

As people visited the World Trade Center site to pay their respects yesterday, New York City resident, Ben Sturner stayed a bit further away.

He took incredible pictures of a rainbow bursting out of where The World Trade Center stood. Since it was the day before the 14th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, this shook him to his core.

In a statement to Fox News, he said,

“It was just so surreal, thinking that it’s the day before 9/11. It’s symbolic, what happened right at that spot and having this incredible rainbow [for] the anniversary. I just couldn’t believe this incredible coincidence.”

Facebook users have been saying that the location of this rainbow is no coincidence at all. Bethany Smith said, “this is all of those who lost their life sending us a message, and letting us know that they are feeling no pain anymore, and are home in paradise.” 

Another user, Selena Stevenson, said, “I was there today….you could feel the energy. It was emotional and amazing.“

Social media users on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook have been sharing these photos, which are so beautiful and symbolic of what our nation has been through. 2,977 American lives were stolen from us that day and all we have left are their memories. Fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers, and friends never came home that day.

Take a look at these incredible and chilling photos below.

Fourteen years later, our nation has not healed, and may never heal. These photos give us hope that there are 2,977 angels looking down on us in our time of remembrance.

Countless news outlets have shared theses photos, and there is no surprise why. The way the rainbow bursts from the site and over Manhattan is truly breathtaking.
