Existential Conundrum

detangling figurative philosophical, (i.e. ineffable) thread tightly bound most likely requires a greater capacity (than mine) to expound, considerably superior than this feeble intellectual attempt, nonetheless I rifle thru my mental vocabulary rolodex for minimally approximating words to be found in an effort to describe this nagging mental quandary, albeit attempting basic construct analogous to erecting complex edifice securely established upon terrestrial firmament, or a similar fac simile thereof ground poetry, (foreign hoe wry ming reason), the modus operandi chosen to elaborate abstract concept within temple mount doth hound assaying into a unique rubric, that doth hammer impound seemingly loud enough for persons (far and/or near) methinks would be minimally jocund, (an under statement), thus keeping an ironbound (not necessarily ironclad) intent to avoid creating a mound of gobbledygook from molehill requiring assiduous cognition musclebound now in essence thee general precept newfound (cerebral land) to yours truly, who posits schema where at any given instant, a near infinite number of options exist veer really hypothetically, figuratively, et cetera, an arbitrary lyft ting headstrong uber human being tubby endowed with moderate aptitude, there by establishing a baseline (bench mark) presenting her/him square lee with feasible choices predicated on some ordinary circumstance, NOT requiring unusual prepare ration (a familiar situation for all practical intents and purposes), perhaps some near lee familiar quotidian routine mere lee entailing known exertion needed, now analogously press pause here by grafting a sudden theoretical quagmire (manageable impasse) easily overcome by opting for reflexive actionable decision, gear mindset really con fronted with a gamut of options breed ding sudden fear full ness on behalf of our intrepid subject whose one isolated moment occurs countless times 'ere daily, weekly, monthly...hence horns of a dilemma if dear ole missus and/or mister stops to reflect deliberating with attentiveness clear unsure if this philosophical plight beware re: of (in toto the butterfly effect) causing wily reader to become (devoid of paranoia) more aware.
