XP still keeps working for many years to come on the hardware you have. But you won't get highers versions of Internet Explorer (that some sites expect) and you won't get drivers for your latest printer and you'll find more hackers attacking your system, because Microsoft doesn't plug holes in XP anymore.
So our advice is to make an 'image' of your system on an external hard disk regularly, so you can go back to the latest image if something fatal happens. And, of course, back up all things that you don't want to lose if you restore that image.
