I wouldn't worry. There are more than sixty-five million speakers of that particular language. It is in no danger of extinction.

72 million people inside Iran and at least 30 million outside Iran speak Persian.

And I never said extinction.I mean upheaval (I hope this word has the right meaning here)

Languages change. All languages. Not much can be done about it.

Yeah,but i don't seem to be able to accept it easily.
I wish i could keep up with other language so that i'd know whether they are changing the way Persian does and I'd know if these changes are natural.

The whole idea is too confusing.I don't really know~!!!!!!

There are only two possibilities anyway:
1-I worry too much
2-I worry just the right amount
