Life is not suffering but there is suffering in life if not lived skillfully.

Cause has to be real. Imaginary causes of suffering like fate, supreme creator and controller, planets in heaven, previous birth, past birth karma etc.… are not real.

Desires, aversions and attachments due to ignorance as the causes of suffering are real and within the reach of individual to address. Every individual has ability to become free from ignorance, desires, aversions and attachments.

Ignorance is due to forgetfulness. You forget how you were, how you felt, how you gathered mind and self from society in the beginning of your life during infancy. You forget the beginning, why you are the way you are and from where you are.

Hence enlightenment is due to dispelling ignorance through recognizing and remembering some forgotten but obvious truths.
