Don't get me wrong, I love my national fraternity (because of my chapter, perhaps?) I love the ritual that my organization has, but my loyalty remains, and will continue to remain with my chapter.

That is a good way of explaining it. I think there are a lot of us that chose the chapter and not the national/international organization, especially as college freshmen making this kind of decision. Learning through the new member process about the national organization is what made me appreciate mine.
