Well, what I think happened is the girl began weaving, and learned with every difficult choice she made. That with the wise old woman beside her, she gained her own formidable wisdom. And she learned to value her choices, and make the wise ones, even when they were very painful.
For the power she had been given was the one to dictate her own life. That's a power you and I have as well.
But eventually that girl gained enough wisdom to leave the loom, and to go out and do what needed to be done. She didn't need to see the mirror any more... she knew that sometimes not knowing what was to come was far better in the long run.
She became a wise leader. The choices she made, good or bad, were the ones she could live with - and in the end, was satisfied with. And though it was very hard, as all important things are... yes Katara, one day she saved her people. I'm not saying they didn't have it hard after that, but they made it through.

That's what I think.
