Life means suffering.
The origin of suffering is attachment.
The cessation of suffering is attainable.
The path to the cessation of suffering.
The last one is a little confusing. PM me and I'll do my best to explain it.

My understanding was alittle different... especially about the first one.
Suffering (suffering exists, recognize it)
Cause/source of Suffering (from thirst/craving)
Cessation/end of Suffering (it is possible to bring it to end suffering)
Ways to practice to bring Suffering to an end (eightfold path)
I like these types of discussions, but know only a few that can discuss it.
