Minor grammatical correction

If the Volume is created from the ConfigMap, the files in the Volume are representatives of the Config map, not the other way round.

ConfigMaps allow you to decouple configuration artifacts from image content to keep containerized applications portable.
The ConfigMap API resource stores configuration data as key-value pairs. The data can be consumed in pods or provide the configurations for system components such as controllers. ConfigMap is similar to [Secrets](/docs/concepts/configuration/secret/), but provides a means of working with strings that don't contain sensitive information. Users and system components alike can store configuration data in ConfigMap.
Note: ConfigMaps should reference properties files, not replace them. Think of the ConfigMap as representing something similar to the a Linux `/etc` directory and its contents. For example, if you create a [Kubernetes Volume](/docs/concepts/storage/volumes/) from a ConfigMap, each data item in the ConfigMap represents an individual file in the volume.

For example, if you create a [Kubernetes Volume](/docs/concepts/storage/volumes/) from a ConfigMap, each data item in the ConfigMap is represented by an individual file in the volume.
The ConfigMap's `data` field contains the configuration data. As shown in the example below, this can be simple -- like individual properties defined using `--from-literal` -- or complex -- like configuration files or JSON blobs defined using `--from-file`.
