St. Patrick used the analogy of the clover. 3 distinct "things" all made up of the same "stuff" and all technically one plant "thing".
If you would like a more human analogy, the family analogy works. There 3 people in a family. The families last name is Smith. They're all sacks of flesh and blood and breath and have similar needs, desires and drives. They each are individuals and yet share a singular focus and purpose, while each has a different role in the family and how that family relates to things outside the family.
Hope that makes sense, quote or mention me if I you'd like to continue.
