Internet sharing

These choices suggest you are saying your Mac is already connected and working with an active Ethernet connection, and you wish to use your Mac as a limited Wi-Fi access point.

grayed out suggests it is not working, or not TOP-MOST.

The active Network connection is the one that is TOP-MOST AND Working in

System Preferences > Network

If this is what you want to do, use the gear icon under the list of networks to drag Ethernet Top-Most. When Ethernet is not connected, it will not be Working, so your Mac will use Wi-Fi instead.

Does your Mac have an Internet connection? Are you following these instructions?

Share the internet connection on Mac with other network users - Apple Support

please explain in great detail what it is you want to share and with what other devices.

Internet sharing turns your Mac into a limited Access Point, typically for a DIFFERENT medium than the one you use for your main internet connection.

If your system has a router, a network, each device can separately access the router/network directly via Wi-Fi and leave your Mac out of the picture.
