This world has to come apart once in a while. Otherwise, it will come to an end altogether. Because the old woman is the old woman of this world, the one who is manifesting the world. And if she ever came to the end of the garment, it would be the end of the world. And therefore be thankful when things fall apart. And when you have the chance, calm yourself, look at the chaos, pick up a loose thread, and help the old woman reweaving the world again. My favorite story.
